Yes....there are very definite signs this morning. I stayed half an hour videoing them try out the entrance hole in rotation...they are going quite bananas in there now. I really thought I might get lucky enough to be there for the big 'event'....but they need more time clearly.
Mother has not been in at all this morning - I imagine this is her effort to make them hungry enough to entice them out?
Here is a video of a moment when I thought Chick no.1 was going to take the 'leap of faith'....but no....however, I would say they will be gone in the next hour or two.
Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to them at 9am.....and I know for sure that they will be gone when I come home this evening. Ah, such a bitter sweet feeling.
Apologies for the crappy shaky hand held video - lighting is bad and I was excited!!
