Just checked the web cam.  Have these little babes grown!  A week old and can only get their head under Mom ;D
Haven't checked the cam since hatch day so a big difference in size ;)

thanks for the video of feeding time Kittenface. Adorable ;) I haven't been able to watch much so far this year and I enjoyed my lunch watching that Mum ever so gently feeding her little ones...

The video was such a treat, kittenface.  Thank you.
The way the parent so gently fed that newest little one, once it got itself turned around, was quite touching to see.

Just saw the 11:05am EDT feeding. 4 chicks! (Great capture, Kittenface!)
The 4th was hiding in the back of the chickpile.
