Great News, for the first time in 16 years we have had 100% hatching success. 17 fertile eggs have now given way to 17 gorgeous chicks!!
DOC rangers have worked long hours over the past two weeks checking the chicks several times a day to ensure they avoid fly strike and are adequately fed during the critical first 48 hours after cracking the shell.
