Five Peewees

The two large ones in the big cage were released and the three little ones in the little cage were moved into the big cage so they had more room.

Except there's a problem. One of the older peewees doesn't like being free.

He refuses to leave and hangs around the cage he used to call home, even visiting the young ones when I put them in the sun. (They need UV or they get rickets.) He still begs for food. This greets me every time I step outside.

At feeding time I have three screaming maniacs in the cage, and one screaming maniac running around my feet. Sometimes he even comes into the house.

Now I have even more screaming maniacs. Three baby peewees arrive this morning. That's 6+1 in care.

I thought the pee wees were the size of humming birds...and I have visual perspective problems in the first place. Considering that, they could well be either small or the size of turkeys for all I know :)

That large cage is about 1m/40" long, just to give you an idea of scale.
