Weigh day.
Since hatching at 286g on the 28th of January, the Signal Station Trig chick has grown to 7.5kg on day 203 (Tuesday 19 of August 09.55am). Unfortunately, this was coincidentally while the live stream was offline due to the generator being tested at this time. The weight is a 100g increase on last week’s weight of 7.4kg. The chick’s weights level off around this stage as most of the growing has now been done and they are maintaining weight until getting lighter just prior to fledging.
By Sunday 17th August there had been no feedings from either parent, so the Royalcam chick was reweighed and supplementary fed. Her weight was down to 6kg, and she was fed a variety of Squid, fish species and fluids. This was her ninth time being supplementary fed. Later in the day GLG and A85 came in to feed which was very good to see. Light winds for much of last week saw fewer adults coming in until the weather change on Sunday afternoon. Today's weight of 7.5kg is a substantial increase on Sunday mornings weight.
