Meet Squeak

Here is Squeak at about 2 days old, sporting custom-fitted hobble to try to correct the splayed leg problem, alhough his or her legs are not half as bad as Liquorice's.

Other news: Squeak has a second sibling. There was another egg trying to hatch yesterday and all last night. I expected it to be out this morning, but still not. Julie came home from work early and helped it out of its shell - it had all dried up as the shell had been cracked for over 24 hours. It was very bent when first hatched, although is looking more and more normal (for a straggly yellow thing) by the hour. It's another Buff Sussex, and is called ... Lucky.
