Day 25.

Bush eggs: one. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: full.

Steve and the chicks are fine; The Female Person has been feeding them lots of lovely little treats, just what they need. She also brought her own two chicks (we call them The Little People) down to see Steve’s chicks. They were obviously excited to see them but they were a little too enthusiastic and so BIG and CLUMSY. Afterwards Steve said she feared for the chicks’ lives but I think she was just being an over-anxious new mother. The Female Person is extremely careful with all of her fine feathered friends.

A full feed hopper for us too, and as a bit of a change from our usual fare of pellets, there are pellets and wheat mixed in together! Happy days!
