Third chick hatched this morning!
Two more eggs left.
I almost didn't see the new baby, couse it's so small
compared to yesterday's hatchlings!

Isn't it crazy how their size nearly doubles every day!! :shock: !! I don't see how anything can grow that fast! I'm amazed every time I see them.

Nothing new this morning, still two eggs left.
Three chicks is enough for first timers.
Both parents are split to blue,
so I am hoping for at least blue baby.

The chick that fledged yesterday is bouncing
back and forth like a pro! It looks like a silver!
Fingers crossed!

My other two pairs, Napoleon and Josephine and
Jupiter and Juno have both built nests and I am
waiting for egg!

How long before the hen of the fledged (Romeo and Juliet ) start
laying again?

With four pairs doing breeding and busy, I am beyond ecstatic!
It makes the wait all worth while!
