Update pics of white crowned robin chat

After a month of keeping them, they are doing great so far.  Eating crickets, rusty reds (Blatta lateralis), mealworms, super mealworms, and dried food that prepared for shama.  The male is still shy and won't come down to eat until I move far away, while the female comes down to eat while I stand few feet away from the aviary.

White crowned Robin Chat - Cossypha albicapilla

Below is the pair (according to the seller) of white crowned robin chat that I purchase at the Bird Mart in Pomona today. I wasn't plan to buy this pair since I know nothing about them (beside eating insect as other Cossypha genus), but with the decent price and little impulse, I decide to get them. This is the only pair of its kind in the Bird Mart. The male is the one with ugly tail. He lost one of the front toe nail on the right and his back toe on the left is defected in a way that it hard for him to curve the back toe nail to grab the branch. The female is perfect. Just wonder how good the song of this specie compare to the white rumped shama as not much info about this specie on the internet.



Just update on the Hwamei that finish his molt:
