It's A Budgie Chick!

Mama Princess helped her new baby break free of its shell. If all goes well, three more eggs will be hatching during the next several days.

The first egg from Princess and Boingo's spring clutch has hatched! With mommie's help, the tiny, pink, wobbly bean broke its way into the world.

I was lucky enough to grab a photo of the brand new baby. Although it's very tired and helpless, the little darling is chirping, making its arrival known with the sweetest, softest, highest-pitched peeps you've ever heard.

I'm in love! Congratulations, mommy and daddy. Now, your work begins.
