Was Trey like this last year Tracy? He cant or wont stay with the chicks very long. They just switched again.
Trey's always like this at this time of the year. He's pretty maternal but doesn't get to sit with the kids much so when he does he's always trying to do everything - clean, tuck the kids in bed, look pretty for his sweetie ... hmmm, sounds like most Moms
.
As for not staying with the chicks, its warm enough outside that he doesn't have to. Now that they have hatched they don't need to be "baked" anymore, they are done. Now its just a case of keeping them warm/cool and dry until they can thermoregulate on their own. Sorry, that makes it sound easy and it isn't, there is actually where the hard work begins. Incubation was long and boring for them, now its more difficult and labour intensive.
