FOOD HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! FEEDING SHOULD START SHORTLY :-)

Just getting here this morning, so it sounds like they haven't been fed yet? Niecey is just so good about staying right over them. Hope the weather improves. Not raining here, but cloudy and in the 50"s. Lil Dad came and Niecey left. Look at those little darlings. I hope food is being prepared. Awe there IT IS!

CHICKS ARE REALLY UP FRONT THERE. NIECEY ON THE STICK IN FRONT OF THE SCRAPE STANDING AND DEFEATHERING IN THE SCRAPE, FEATHERS A FLYING :-(

Boy! They are grabbing!! LOL! I can hear their peeps! She is defeathering right there and it is getting to be another pile! LOL!

OK, I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY THE LIL ONE IS HAVING SUCH A HARD TIME TURNING AROUND OR GETTING UP THERE TO EAT UNLESS IT HAD FOOD VERY VERY EARLY THIS MORNING? BUT THEN WHY WOULD THESE 3 BE SO HUNGRY NOW AND NOT HIM? HE'S NOT EVEN ASKING FOR FOOD, JUST LEANING ON ALL THE REST WHILE THEY EAT :-(

I'm still here. I noticed that too! She is the best feeder. She tries to get everyone!

I'M REALLY STARTING TO THINK WE HAVE 3 GIRLS AND ONE BOY HERE. NOT ONLY THAT, I THINK HE IS ONE SMART COOKIE! HE KNOWS HE DOESN'T HAVE A CHANCE IN THE BEGINNING, SO HE DOESN'T EVEN TRY TO GET FED FOR A WHILE. THEN WHEN THEY ALL START TO PASS OUT FROM BEING FULL, HE GETS HIS TURN! OMG, THAT'S AWESOME!

THEY ARE TOO CLOSE TO THE FRONT OF THE SCRAPE, SO NIECEY WENT IN BEHIND THEM NOW TRYING TO STILL FEED.

Oh MY! I never saw that before. The way she took the food to the back!! She is super Mom.

LIL ONE IS GETTING FED NOW, BUT BOY, THAT ONE BIGGER ONE WAS REALLY CHEWING ON HIS FACE FOR A BIT :-(

THIS WAS THE BEST FEEDING I EVER SAW! MAYBE BECAUSE THEY WERE SO HUNGRY! WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE THIS ON RECORDING, BUT I DON'T :-(

NIECEY IS A WONDERFUL MOMMY, GREAT BLOODLINES IN HER :eggthumbup:

OMG! SHE JUST PICKED UP A CHICK AND PUT IT OVER WHERE IT WAS BORN! IT WAS SCREAMING! THE OTHERS WENT OVER THEMSELVES, THEY DIDN'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN TO THEM! LOL!

Ok, this picking up chicks and moving them around is new to me, other than RG's odd behaviour with the first hatched chick.

I'VE SEEN IT BEFORE, BUT NOT AS MUCH AS NIECEY DOES. SHE NEEDS AT LEAST ONE TO BE WHERE IT WAS BORN IT SEEMS, LOL! AND THEY ARE A LITTLE BIG FOR IT NOW I THINK! SHE'S VERY CONTROLLING, LOL!

SOUNDED LIKE LIL DAD BROUGHT FOOD, BUT NIECEY DIDN'T COME BACK WITH IT YET.
