Weigh day.
Since hatching at 286g on the 28th of January, the Signal Station Trig chick has grown to 6.4 kg on day 154 (Tuesday 1st of July 11.48am). This is a 900g decrease on last week’s second weigh of 8kg. This is only a little outside the healthy range so there is no supplementary feeding today, but she will be reweighed and possibly fed later in the week.
Since last Tuesday Signal Station Trig chick was weighed and supplementary fed on Friday as she was back down to 6.3kg, she was supplementary fed 1kg of fish and some fluids. On Saturday GLG arrived with octopus, much of which was too big for the chick.
Food that is dropped is often scavenged by smaller birds, but rangers will remove it from the area if it is practical to do so.
