New photos!

We’ve named the squabs Mamuang and Makham, which in Thai means Mango and Tamarind, respectively, so we call them Manny and Tammy for short. As with the first batch, we’ve arbitrarily assigned genders. Manny, the boy, is the first-hatched and Tammy, the girl, the second-hatched.
You can see Big Pidgee and Manny at 2 days old here, here and here. Tammy is barely visible beneath her father in a couple of these. You can see Manny’s little eye back behind his bill. In the second one especially, you can clearly see the dark area in front of the eye that I at first thought was going to be the eye. In the third photo, Manny’s bill is slightly open.
Big Pidgee is with both squabs visible here and here yesterday (Friday), at 5 and 4 days old. I believe that’s Manny on the left and Tammy on the right. Manny’s the larger one, being a day older.
You can see the size difference more clearly here and here, taken this morning (Saturday morning). That’s Tammy on the left, 5 days old; and Manny on the right, 6 days old. Little Pidgee, the mother, left sometime between 6 and 7am. As with the previous batch, the parents have begun spending longer stretches away at a time about now.
Breakfast time! Big Pidgee, the father, arrived to feed the squabs after I took those last shots. See the feeding here, here, here, here and here. This was not the Main Switch of the shifts. Shortly after I took these, Little Pidgee came back and started feeding the squabs herself. The Main Switch, with Big Pidgee taking over the day shift, occurs around 9am now.
I’ve started a new folder for this batch of the squabs, and you can see all of the above photos on one page here. The earlier photos of the new batch in this thread are still in another photo; I’ll have to move them over to here sometime.
The flower box is working out better than the flowerpot, because it allows us to see the squabs more easily. The depth and restricted space inside the old flowerpot meant we could not see the first batch very clearly until they were much older, but in the flower box the parents cannot cover them up from our view as efficiently. After only a few days, the squabs have grown too big to cover completely. Also, the squabs seem cleaner, because the wider space means they’re not getting shat on all the time.
Unfortunately, the ants seem to have set up a colony at the far end of the flower box. They’re not coming in and out of the box now, I fixed that, but the ones already inside have dug into the dirt and become self-sufficient, carting around little bits of pigeon shit. But they don’t seem to be bothering the pigeons at all. I HATE ants, but there’s nothing I can do about these; cannot spray poison inside the box. We’re going to start looking for a new flowerbox to replace this one when it comes time for the next batch.
