That's really good news, @@TomK ! Yep, they have been described as shy and curious. Quirky birds, but endearing.TomK wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 9:18 amSheesh!.. 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..
