Dad watching the egg huggers while Mom went to the pantry to get pigeon pops.

Another feeding in Brandon... they look so little compared to the Radisson family! I love how HUrricane so gently places the food in their mouths. Is the 48 hour rule still applying to the last egg? Just waiting patiently...

TPC, what did you mean by "hatch damp"

Its been raining like crazy in Brandon for the last few days, including when the chicks hatched.  So, damp-from-hatching vs damp-from-the-rain.  :)

Doh! I get it.

Already it is  hard to believe the Radisson Royals were that small. What a week and a half can do ::)

Very sad news, to hear about the loss of one of the Brandon chicks. :'( Is it still in the nestbox or has one of the parents disposed of it? ??? Or will they eat it? :-\

Two hungry chicks eagerly eating in Brandon right now! (The third chick still appears lifeless, and there is still one egg.)

Gotta love how they keep tipping over :D when they stretch to eat! Too cute!

Mealtime and with Hurricane feeding the chicks. Those mouths are wobbly little targets to aim for.  After feeding Brooklyn came by for a shift swap.
