Crisis on the maternity ward

Two chicks have died tonight and one more is looking decidedly dodgy, and it is our fault. We thought a couple of them were panting as they were too warm, so we lifted the heat lamp up a little. Big mistake. Within an hour, one had died, and two more were on the edge, so I put them back into the incubator to warm up. One of those two has since died too, and the other is teetering.

The FH has had a damp day at his show, but an interesting one, and has met lots of new people. The girls and I have been busy in a lot of ways, here and there, and that is all I am saying for tonight - I am SOOO tired! Good night!
