Thanks Pete, am sure you will have several eggs in that nest that you can’t yet see. It will be a lovely surprise when you can count the chicks. Sue

Great news Sue You will be relieved that the workers haven’t disturbed your nest they carry on as normal 😊 The workers haven’t started yet Ann, they are due to start next week whilst we are away. All out of my control 😢. I just hope that by then the parents will carry on regardless, but who knows . However i will be able to watch your box and know exactly what stage mine should be at if they stay as both have hatched on the same day, and just hope that when we come back they are still with me Sue

Am sure this must be Dad trying his hand at feeding - think he needs to try decidedly smaller meals !!!!!! Sue ps looks like we have one unhatched egg so am hoping we have nine chicks.

A bit of bedtime bedlam as they have their supper and settle down for the night and i have to say goodbye for a week . Who can count how many? I know at least one egg is unhatched. I believe there are 9 chicks but they just wont stay still . I even tried pausing the video but still cant count them. I will still be keeping my eyes on the forum for any answers, and just hope my chicks are still here when i get back Sue

At least 9 there Sue I reckon - there's one on the right that's not as lively, plus another one that pops up on the top left from under two others....so it could either be 10 or even 11! Nice sound on your camera. Picks up a lot of interesting sounds.

Thanks Ann. Well I thought there were only had 10 eggs but never really had a totally clear view of them so it would be a lovely surprise if there were more 😀. Hopefully they will still be there for me to count when we get home Sue
