The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

We have a pair of pheasant around our property. We hear the male and I've glimpsed him briefly once. The hen we've managed to disturb a couple of times recently but she seems to always return for her chicks. Their camouflage is amazing so you just don't see them until you're almost standing on them.

We decided to bring the oldest 2 chicks inside today from the aviary. The littlest babies didn't have much in their crops whereas the older ones are stuffed full. The lutino hatched second but she's not far off being twice as heavy as her sibling who hatched first. They haven't started growing feathers yet and they are 2 weeks old so I was perhaps worrying too much about our older babies not getting feathers quickly enough.

Not a great photo as I was using my phone.

DD wants to call the lutino Lioness. I'm just calling her Pudding. 🤣
FEED ME!!!
