Hi again Nancy, Lisa and Mike :-)

Nancy – So do I. As you will see above there are now just three chicks. However as each day passes the chicks must be getting a little bigger and it appears she can get more in their mouths now. She just has to feed much more regularly so they have a chance! Have a great weekend :-D
