    Can a whole nest be rotten?

    Sorry it's been so long! They sure do grow fast! Wow and the color changes! 2 of the blacks have turned blue! Dad stays all the time now and they have figured out their boundaries!

    Can a whole nest be rotten?

    Dad has different attitudes about it. He is really good with them at times but then he will start trying to bite(?) them. I put a ? because I don't really know what he's doing. I separated him and he gets visitation rights when I'm out there with them.

    Can a whole nest be rotten?

    Thanks Miss Lydia. I didn't think the one that had internally pipped was still trying to get out because I couldn't see any movement. And I didn't see movement in the other two but I just decided to put them back in the nest. I checked earlier and candled and nothing had changed. If there isn't...

    That's interesting! Do I just leave them with mom and she will teach them how to eat and drink?
