They have plenty of room on the nest but it’ll get tight when they get larger. There’ll still be room for all of them, though. Those nests are huge.
They pile up for warmth now because their bodies can’t self-regulate body temps. The tiny chick just got buried underneath the pile and couldn’t breathe.
Their legs are short at this point, like their beaks. All will get longer over the next couple of months. No way full-length legs would fold up to fit inside those small eggs. LOL
That’s true! I guess I never thought about it...and I’ve only seen the babies once when they were first out of the eggs and they were all huddled up together.
Guess I’d best go now. I don’t want to be deadheaded and try to look like I’m having fun at work. LOL! Bad combination! :)
See ya tomorrow!
