Friendly visit from the teeny, tiny, little pukeko's
Jessie's Mum brought in 2 little Pukeko's for us to meet. They had been rescued. They had been caring and providing for these beautiful little creatures.




We were lucky enough to see them walk and talk. We also had a quick hold. It was amazing to see the long slender legs that they would grow into.




The children worked on being as quite as a mouse, as to not scare them. They were VERY good at this.

We watched closely their feeding time, they were very hungry, and ate directly off the spoon. Some of us were brave and let them eat of our fingers.


Thank you so very much for bringing these amazing little creatures in. We were all very surprised to see how little they were, we had to be very delicate.
