Are there always more male than female chicks born or is this happenstance, two years in a row?

Just happenstance.  Usually gender ratios are pretty stable over the years.  We've had full male, full female and every mix in between over the years.

Was it mostly Princess yelling, or was Ivy also actively against your appearance on the roof? 

Princess was on the box edge and on the towers yelling.  Ivy was on the wing most of the time adding his voice from time to time.  Between the two of them there was no way any of us were sneaking up on their babes.  But that's what we were hoping for - the babes went scooting to the back of the box just where we needed them to be.

Unfortunately, I missed the live banding, however, after reading the home page which explains it all very well and easy to read, I must write that it's good to know that Princess and Ivy have four very healthy kids and that we have three boys, and one fiesty female!!!   (Good genes)   ;D

I wish I could have watched it online. :(  But it was great to see the Parent Show from the street. :D  (Ran into ballywing)

Just glad they're all healthy!
