blue tit chicks I’m EXHAUSTED! These three blue tit chicks came home with me from the rescue on saturday as they need continual feeding throughout the evening and early mornings. They never stop eating….not ever… you would be astonished at how many mealworm one of these little beauties can put away in one sitting.

Herbie the special needs hog The special needs hedgehog wants mucking out and feeding…. puppies And the dogs DEMAND three square meals and two good long walks each day. Well, the walks have been cut down to 30 minutes. I’m only allowed out that long before the mighty mouthed chicks start screaming unmercifully. blue tit chicks And just when I think I’m done, this happens again. I really pity parent birds.
