This little person arrived approx 2pm this afternoon Betty has been sitting for 35 days - her siter is sitting with her for approx 22 hours per day and Gus = Proud father is marching round and round!
Great excitement when eggs hatched in the incubator but this was something a a little more special |

| Gorgeous! Any more hatched overnight, James? It's nice for Betty that at least one has hatched, after all her hard work. |

| Yes we now have two and both Betty and her sister are looking after them - they are quite delightfull - she still has 10 eggs under her and is not moving from her nest - so fingers crossed. |
