Radisson - 2009 / Trey & Princess
bcbird:
Helen B, apparently the freshly killed food they eat has enough moisture in it to meet their need for fluids.
We have seen the chicks get a spray or two of water during the banding, but I think TPC said that was because of the stress of the procedure that they need a bit of extra, rather than they were dehydrated to begin with.

What was the temp there today?
Helen b:
it is 7:57 here in Winnipeg and the chicks are very active. It is cooling down a bit now so hopefully they will have a good noght to sleep. Supposed to be very warm over the ext week.
A question is how do the chicks stay hydrated when it is so hot, as there does not appear to be water intake. Just wondering about.
nibs:
boy do you ever! especially when they start to get on the ledge !
