McKenzie Seeds - 2011 / Brooklyn & Hurricane

[Linder]

Looks like it is almost out.

[Linder]

Thanks for the pic of the renegade being returned to where it should be. I hope the 2nd hatch happens before dark. 

[Ellie]

Thanks RCF.

[RCF]

Here she is getting the renegade egg.  Looks like the top has come off the second egg.

[Ellie]

Looks like she finally found the egg and it is under her now.  Guess the white area on the end was only a light reflective issue.  Seemed that way when it got turned a bit!

[RCF]

Well, she found her renegade egg and stuffed it underneath her.

[Ellie]

Camera has been a bit "jerky" here.  Hopefully it will correct itself soon.

[Linder]

Yeah you're probably right. Have to leave for a few minutes, it will probably hatch when I'm gone. Take pics rcf, plse.

[RCF]

I think that egg will be fine, she's seems to more concerned about the imminent hatching of number two egg.

[RCF]

The end of it does. I keep yelling at the screen for the bird to move but guess this doesn't work.

HAHA  LinderLou, I tried that, it doesn't work.  

[Ellie]

She moved......must have heard you Linderlou.  It is now under the tail feathers but still not entirely under her.  The end seemed to keep getting whiter as I watched but now it is hidden so I guess my watching that particular egg is over. Oh well it too shall hatch with out me.

[Linder]

The end of it does. I keep yelling at the screen for the bird to move but guess this doesn't work.

[Ellie]

The egg that is on the outside of Hurricane appears to be weakening at the end as it appears whitish.  Or am I seeing things?

[Linder]

Hurricane came back to the nest box just a few minutes after you posted TPC very quick change and as far as I can tell there has been no chick feed yet is this the norm?

Haven't checked the recorder yet but when I get a chance I will but I think you are right.  Not a big concern, the chick will be tired from its adventure and the weather really sucks for birds trying to hunt and an hours-old chick to try to figure out how to sit up and eat.  The chick won't come to harm, Hurricane and Brooklyn will feed it when they can or when they have to.  If there is another chick hatching at the moment, they may hold off and try to feed both when the winds go down some more.

Don't think there is a need to worry.

[RCF]

Has this chick been fed already today?
Every time so far when the adult moves enough to see the chick,
it seems to be on it's side and it's eye is open. Is the chick ok?
Maybe I'm just worrying too much.

I haven't seen a feeding, but that doesn't mean it hasn't been fed.
