Mom met her new chick. Apparently, she's spooked by the hatching process because JJ is back on them again a few minutes later.

Kittenface, how of good of you to stay up and bring us the play-by-play of the hatching!

9 am JJ came - WITHOUT FOOD - and she fled
9.15 Tawny returns with a whole bird - JJ leaves fast

I find myself ticked off at JJ - SHOW HER the chick cant eat that!
She has no idea what to do

EGG 2 appears to be hatching - or is it leftover shell??

:furious:

9.45 There is hatch #2
Tawny leaves both - new hatch exposed

10 am There's JJ - without food for chick
He appears as clueless as Tawny and leaves :egg16:

10 Tawny appears and steps on chick - the edge of her talon appear to hold it on its back
She tries to feed it bits on its back - it keeps kicking
She stept on it again as she left
Poor lil chicks
10.05 She's covering them - older one kicking - on its back

10.30 am SHE FED CHICK 1 :egg5:
Just getting back - I am relieved!

New mothers learn all the time. Its a good thing there're fairly fast at it. As far as JJ's concerned, I don't know if he recognized that she's a new mother--she could have had 10 nests as far as he's concerned. She's not the worst I've seen. With some new mothers, I'd be concerned about them lunging toward the chicks and poking an eye out. With the kids being less than 12 hours old (1 less than an hour old), I'd say that she did a heck of a job, what with kids tipping over left and right. :biggrin:

it wont take her long. 2 will be enough here. I always hope for one, with one this young. I believe BArb thinks she i s one right.
and you are right, the male does not know she is so young. His job now is to provide food and help brood

I just watched her feed, great job . sh e learned that pretty quick. she was just confused as one hatched also and was not quite sure what to do. :eggthumb: :15heartbeat:

see she knew what to do, just not quite how. but she got that down eventually :15heartbeat: It would be like me having triplets. my goodness , I had trouble enough figuring out one, at a time, years apart. :teehee: . we are trial and error, so are they.

I have video of last feed if no on else does.
she is doing great . number one got enough and number two is not strong enough yet. We must remember they have at least a days reserve form hatching.

I love her already. sh e knows , so far to give small pieces and I loved the way she turned number 2 over when it was on its back. she is doing great and JJ doing what he is supposed to. bring her prey. :7val:

Good one Terka!
Its not easy to catch them close to each other!

Here are my notes for today - all in one post - fwiw

2 HATCHLINGs
May 17, 2019 Flyday
1 hatched late yesterday
This morning she dragged it, then ate shell
6 am I hear birds - I think I hear the new chick too
Its unlikely Tawny knows to FEED the chick
https://youtu.be/Zb73TMgNjiM

9 am JJ came - WITHOUT FOOD - and she fled
9.15 Tawny returns with a whole bird - JJ leaves fast
9.45 There is hatch #2
Tawny leaves both - new hatch exposed

10 am There's JJ - without food for chick
He appears as clueless as Tawny and leaves

10 Tawny appears and steps on chick - the edge of her talon appear to hold it on its back
She tries to feed it bits on its back - it keeps kicking
She stept on it again as she left
Poor lil chicks
10.05 She's covering them - older one kicking - on its back
10.30 am SHE FED CHICK 1

4.30 pm JJ showed up - and instead of fleeing,
- she began to leave, then returned - and sent him for food - maybe?

I am impressed. She grew up fast

:5val:
