Oh cool, always enjoy this thread! Best of luck to #6! We somehow never had one make it out of the shell like that over the years, hope they'll continue recovering.

Love it. I don't know why none of the cats we've owned have really cared about the TV, they just ignore anything like bird videos that we've put on. The one exception was one of the younger ones sometimes getting all excited to swat at Mario as he jumped and ran across the screen

Chickens eating boiled eggs is scrub tier pseudo cannibalism, they'll go ape for a chance to eat meat, up to and including chicken.

Velvet Sparrow posted:Also Triffid started crowing just now. Well, that makes a lot of sense. I saw them flying around a lot and challenging the other chicks but figured it was just them being a few weeks older, but that does seem like it fits better with the other tiny roosters I've seen.

Oh wow, that lighting shows up a lot better. And prefect timing too, I'd checked out for a bit, and most of them are way further into that awkward half-feathered look now

Oh wow, that is a big change, I guess I missed the details from the last few years too. I lived in the Midwest back when I raised chickens while growing up, so it wasn't all that far above sea level. I hadn't realized there was such a difference with altitude, that's good to know in case I ever do accomplish my goal of raising chickens again now that I'm a ways up in the mountains.

Saw this earlier and it made me laugh https://i.imgur.com/uarvIUY.mp4 Cao Cao getting a little too into grooming herself, and going straight on to the flamingo Reminds me of when a cat's sitting in your lap while washing itself, and sometimes just continues on to start cleaning your arm.

Tuned in in time for some more Caonanigans today https://i.imgur.com/R7aw6A7.mp4 It'd been a few days, they're getting big and a bit feathery! https://i.imgur.com/7RJBTn4.mp4 Also noticing more squabbles popping up, even if they're fine hanging out piled on top of each other most of the time.

Everyone mugging for the camera this morning https://i.imgur.com/u6Iu9om.mp4 Are you pretty certain they're all little hens? I can't remember from experience how difficult it is to identify males vs females early on, I just start wondering about getting surprise roosters the more I see them getting squabbly as they get older.

Lol, hopefully I'll catch that at some point, little chicks learning to crow is always funny. Cao Cao seems pretty early from what I (vaguely) remember back in the day, so I looked it up and found a couple people saying roosters can start crowing at 6-8 weeks, with most sources saying even later. Don't believe everything you read, I guess.
