I'm hoping that she will be out hunting or something and miss the whole thing.

Also, they need to squirt some water in their mouths before they even get started.

It's hard to watch this one over here by the camera.

Edit to add pictures

Yes, I know kittenface, it's shaking and panting so hard , I hope the additional stress of being captured and hearing it's parents alarm calling isn't too much for it.

On the plus side, if there is something wrong with the little one then at least they'll hopefully notice when they have him/her in hand.

I sure hope so

Maybe he's just getting less food than everybody else, therefore less water. He can't even seem to rest like the others. I hope he'll be ok. I must go for a while.

Makes sense, he's likely dehydrated. I hope he's okay too. I wish they'd get there just in case, at least if he needs attention they could save him.


These chicks often go for long stretches without a meal. 4 days ago they went without for 3 1/2 hours and had empty crops when I turned the cam on. They were ravenous when fed. Then they were fed 3 times more within the next hour & half.

Also I see sneezes (?) a lot. I posted at the RRP forum asking if that was unusual or not. No one responded. I try not to worry but I often have my worry wart on here.

Not too gentle huh?? I didn't get a single picture.

Well at least they are cleaning the cam. If they can clean the cam from above, why couldn't they get the chicks that way??
