We are in the middle of moving house so things are a bit hectic.
I have been feeding the chicks in the cages they will eventually travel in -- just to get them used to being in there and hopefully reducing the stress of their big trip.
Miss Lilly got over her strange behaviour and settled down for a quiet night with her chicks.
The only one acting strange today was Salt & Pepper -- she had flown out the window of the nursery but then couldn't get back in. When I came home her eggs were very cold. She has since gone back to them so now it will be an anxious week wait to see whether any hatch or whether they got too cold to continue incubating.
For those who keep enquiring about her progress, here is NQR.
She is still small compared to her sisters, but she is otherwise developing normally.
Here they are snuggling up to sleep on their roost. The boys and girls are now very obvious by their combs (girl at the front, boy fast asleep at the rear).
Tomorrow we try to move them to their new home.
