Me too Patily :-) Be great to start referring to them by ID and not #1 or #2 as with mostly only seeing one chick at a time because of the smear, it has been difficult telling who's who. Also it will be nice to find out their sexes - I still think two males and expect them to be a very healthy weight :-D
