I'm not worried, being the good parents they are, they're nearby but out of camera view.   ;)

no need to be concerned as it is plenty warm there.  No doubt the parents will be in soon.  The other chicks can't keep the new one warm as none of them can thermoregulate yet, but the air is quite warm so it's all good.   ;D

glass of wine is a fine idea!

Can't get the cam any more, just a solid black box.

You know what they say about the first thing a chick sees?  Does that mean this one thinks its sib is it's mum?  lol

Incredible to see. But where are the parents?  They have been MIA for quite awhile now.  Thank goodness that chick number 4 has 3 siblings to greet him/her.  Lots of chirps going on here now.  :o  I am starting to be concerned here.

Oops, I guess that answered my question.   :-[

That's amazing.  I think we've got ourselves a healthy chick!   :)

it's still 27C there, so no worries I imagine  kinda surprised one of the parents hasn't come into view yet though.
