Just a usual (wet) day
Translated by Scott Diel
Night temperatures of seven degrees with daytime temps around twenty at 17th of June. It sprinkled a bit during the day, but two o'clock brought serious rain. By evening, the chicks were quite wet…
The chicks are routinely well fed. Padis went somewhere to wash his legs and they appeared an especially clean red today. Argo wrote that chick number 7015's back toe is crooked and not as it should be. Unfortunately, that went uninspected yesterday, though it wasn't a major mistake. It may make it a bit difficult for the bird to stand on branches, but he's already adjusted to his slight handicap.
Yesterday's chick measurements (mm, kg) which Kristo recorded:
Mr. Big – no. 7015 – wing 265; beak 88; weight 1.84
Mr. Middle – no. 7019 – wing 254; beak 86; weight 1.78
Miss Little – no. 701T – wing 227; beak 82; weight 1.48
These chicks are significantly smaller than last year's banded chicks. That was noticeable in the fact that they didn't peck me as hard…
