Hello!
I'm new to these forums. I'm known as the animal expert among my friends, so when a privately-owned aviary maintenance job popped up, I was recommended for it.
Sadly, when I got to the aviary, it seems to be in pretty bad disrepair. It's a large aviary, but only six birds are left, and the place was completely filthy. I've managed to clean a lot of it up, but the birds are a bit thin and looking a little ragged. Owner wanted me to just come in once a month to feed them, but I managed to negotiate an every-other-day feeding deal, which I realize is still pushing it in terms of quality of life, but they'll only pay me for so much.
Anyway, I think I've correctly identified most of the birds (3 cockatiels, 2 Bourke's parakeets), but there's one left that I can't get an ID on. Aside from one of the cockatiels, the birds are not socialized, so I can't get them close to get a better look, so I'm hoping someone on this forum can help me. She's sitting on five eggs, although I have no idea if they're fertile, since her mate apparently died shortly before I was hired. It's the yellow bird in the pictures, with a fully-grown albeit thin cockatiel in there for size comparison. She seems larger than your average budgie. I wish I could get closer to take a better picture, but that seems to be as close as she'll get. Her eyes seem almost reddish, but I'm not sure if that's a feature or if she's unwell.
