Society chicks getting big!

Post by hfinney » Sun Nov 26, 2017 10:33 am

These three hatched last Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Yesterday my three society adults were all off the nest at the same time, which surprised me, but I was delighted to catch a glimpse of these huge chicks! Couldn’t resist snapping a picture.

I keep giving them egg food and they won’t touch it!! Fresh egg food or the packaged stuff. They ate it before while breeding but not since the chicks have hatched. Weird little guys.

Very unusual indeed. Usually they would be inhaling the stuff at this stage of chick development.
