Read the title and thought it was another fox story!
 
Bad luck with the chicks Manian and good luck with the rest. What a Charlie, Charlie.

Awww - sorry to here about the two little ones

[little blue]

Charlie is just a modern man, he has definitely had his wicked way with the girlies!
We had two turkey chicks hatched, one bright yellow & black, the other paler & grey. Does this mean anything?!
Fingers crossed for the other 4 eggs, Mrs Light Sussex is looking after them very well 
thanks ManIan

thanks, I told Mister that they were Norfolk black (but really wasn't sure!)

No more yet, will give them a few days yet.

They are very brave little things, not at all as flighty as the chicks, who are completely crackers!
