Hatched!

It's been three weeks since we received 8 fertilised eggs and I am thrilled to announce the arrival of 5 chicks to our brood.

I am home just now from my mum's birthday party, where she provided all the delicious food for her family to lunch on.

In this photo, mama Cuba is doing her version of that too – grounding up the feed into small enough pieces for her babies to eat.

Happy birth day!
