Keets

13 Guinea fowl keets have hatched today!! She had a much higher success rate than we have had with the incubator, 13 of 18 eggs hatched! Her timing is interesting though as we are into the cooler months now so she will have to work hard to keep them warm. We will move them tomorrow into a big aviary to give the little ones a better chance. In this photo they are in temporary overnight enclosure - Mum flew out just before I took the photo but she was soon back with them. There are two “aunties” in the picture too, helping her look after them which we have not seen before! I’ll have to get some better photos when they are more settled.
A busy day at work as I tried to wear 3 hats at once, however, it’s so good that it is Friday!!
