Here is Sir Chargesalot and Lady Quakavier with their fifteen adorable babies. Lady Quakavier had been sitting on her nest so long that we began to wonder if maybe she had lost all her eggs and gone a bit cuckoo. But alas when we thought all hope was lost, Cammie finds her swimming in the irrigation water with FLUFFY BABIES!
We were all relieved, especially Steve. There has been something eating our animals, yet some how she managed to set on her nest and hatch a mess of babies!
We wanted them all to be safe and it took most of us to wade through knee deep irrigation water to herd (protesting) mom, dad and babies into their pen. Lady Quakavier had ungracefully laid her eggs outside the safety of her enclosed pen.
