Chick update

The chicks have only been out of the eggs for four days and already we can see little feathers starting to grow on the tips of their wings.

They now have names!

Sunshine

Shadow

Hei Hei

Hazelnut

Acorn
We opened the last two eggs yesterday to see why they didn't hatch. One was unfertilised so it never even started developing a chick. The other was nearly fully ready to hatch. It was a perfect little chick. We don't know why it died. We buried it in the Butterfly Garden.
