Today, I took chicks #3 and #4 over to my neighbor's house for a brief reunion and videotaping session with Chicks #1 and #2. Chick #4 pretty much slept through the whole event, but #3 was more alert and interacted with his elder siblings, as well as getting his first hand-feeding.
Chick 4, 13 days old, prefers a quieter celebration
of the holiday than his siblings.

Elijah, Chick #1 (right) is patiently waiting. Both chicks are almost
three weeks old.
Elijah finally gets some lunch.
Chicks #1, 2, and 3 are pretty perky today, espcially
with a hand-feeding syringe lurking nearby. Chick #3 got
his first hand-feeding today after watching his siblings eat
from the syringe.
"Feed me! Feed me!"
Elijah gets first dibs on the Roudybush formula, and
will take his upside down, thank you very much.
