9:11 am at first the chick #1 is facing the wrong way and finally Ma gets it figured out and the meal begins. Chick #2 still trying to raise it little head. Hard work right now for such a very young one.

9:14 am Ma feeding chick #1. This learning to eat is messy and has a bit of a curve. But chick #1 has some success and learning to reach out.

Good morning, Jean. You do have the time right. I had to go back and look as it was a busy morning and couldn't remember. Thanks for checking.
