Nine days old

At 9 days old, the chick is becoming more and more demanding!

As soon as food arrives, it begs to be fed. It has even tried pecking at the food itself.


The weather has been rather hot and Bella has (at times) been a really good parent and shields the chick from the sun.


At other times, she leaves it completely alone, and it just lies there in the full sun and pants to try to keep cool.
