We, some of us anxiously, await the hatching of Osplet #2(#4) laid on 23 April. Osplet #1(#3) laid on 20 April is thriving, it will be a formidable elder sibling. Let's hope it takes after Star/Tore, who, whilst she didn't hesitate to put Storm/Bynack in his place, generally waited until she was bashed before she laid into him. Fond memories :-*
Today should be the day.
A little clucking came from under EJ a few minutes ago when she shifted:

Odin as above, EJ gets up and let's Odin see chicks, Odin leaves, EJ leaves, close-up of chicks until EJ returns:
Thanks for that nice bit of film, Scylla. I always love the look on Odin's face when he sees a new offspring: "OOOer!"
Couldn't look in earlier SOOO pleased we have a second chick.
Hope you are enjoying your day MOFFER....there must be something in the air....that's 3 of us going to the hospital today
"Welcome, welcome, Little One ~Odin, look what you have done!At least, we think it might be yoursSo you may as well take the applause.
Shall we call you Mofalot?Or Little Pip, or Scoffalot?Suppose we'll have to wait and seeWhich name suits best, & all agree.
One thing's for sure, your erstwhile siblingSoon more fish he will be nibblingSo you had better eat real wellTo keep up your strength, or time will tell.
Your brother/sister's had some daysOf eating enough fish to just amazeAll those watching: and we are for sureMany bloggers, and many more..
Many worrying that you'll findThat your little twin may not be kindSo, we hope that if you now look woollyIt will be enough to protect you from a bully!"
LOL, Lindybird - hope your Scoffalot prediction comes true and #2 can hold its own :-)
