 Sheesh!.. Some people are on the edge of their seats it seems..ok ok...i picked up
5 more chicks yesterday...makes the total 14...three small hatches and the last little bird juat got helped out of the shell yesterday morning [...] no issues but it is the weakest of the 5 so time will tell...three age groups and no issues..they are quite fun to watch...Brabanters are wary, and a little skittish it seems but are a really beautiful bird and I really like them...lets see how they turn out.. :run:
That's really good news, @@TomK ! Yep, they have been described as shy and curious. Quirky birds, but endearing. :-)

It's ALWAYS those guys that become the favourites, Tom. I *would* say to not get too attached, but I know it's already happening and if I actually said it, I would be a huge hypocrite :/

Well all you can do is give it a little extra such as booster if you have any and hope for the best, cute little guy.
