thanks, but channel is offline now

Sorry, seems that we have had a power cut thi smorning after I left. I have been away for almost 10 hours.
Now the cam should be online again.

The weekend should perhaps and hopefully bring us some baby FC's

First baby JUST hatched

congratulations

thanks

Here comes Mom, I think she already brought something to eat!

ct 15.13..
Hatching here passes soo much faster than at LSE!
Fatherbird brought tiny caterpillar and mom carries the empty eggshells
outside!


ct 15.19.

3 or 4 have hatched already. It is a miracle to see how they manage to get out of the shell mom sitting on top of them!
Maybe the "shivering" she does helps..

Isn't it cool!! I think that when mom is on top it helps with a little pressure. Same thing goes for the hens, they hatch much better under mama

What is the temperature at your place?? Is it sunny or rainy?

wow this happend really fast

It is extremely sunny And the temp is 31C in the shadow now. At least the chicks will not be cold

Mama must take away the shells?? I haven't seen her doing that, but where have they gone?? Or is she eating them?

you need to go out and look under the nest

She picked up the shell and brought it outside. I cannot tell you whether she eats them or only throws them away. I did not see that,
but eating 7 eggshells seems to be rather much...
Probably they lay not directly under the nest..not attract an enemy..but somewhere
farther away..

I have to go and look

Both parents seem to either eat or take away the shells. Mama would sure need the calcium!!

WOW great

Birds usually carry the empty egg shells away and drop them somewhere - but never directly below the nest.

Two more videos from the hatching

Still 2 eggs to hatch... if there is someone in them

Seems that one egg was not fertile. So we have 6 chicks. I wonder if the parents are going to do something to that egg or just let it be....??

Such eggs often remain in the nest - at least you often find an egg when cleaning out birdhouses after the chicks fledged...

little friends grow so fast and mouths are open wide....

Awwww, that's a good pic

If you have watched the cam you might have noticed how the parents keep the nest tidy - they carry food in and poop out. Nature is amazing!!

Did you knew that this little babys poop is like in bag that parents could carry it far away from nest

The chicks are soon ready to fledge, probably during this weekend
I will miss them... I can hear the sound from the nestbox 24/7.....
They have become little stripies

Video June 22nd



2 videos from today

they are like little arbuses
if they left....maybe you could see them outside
