Hello everyone.
Today is day 141 for the webcam chick and she weighs 8.2kg today thanks to WO. This is the time of the year where the big increases that we saw earlier on have levelled out a bit and there tend to be more fluctuations in weight. The lightest chick was 7.5kg and the heaviest 9.5kg, so a 2kg range. A lot of the food energy is now going into keeping warm and growing those all important feathers and wings.
The process of name choosing is well under way and we will have the names for you to vote on next Tuesday.
Tomorrow, 1the 13th of June is the Anniversary of the Signing of the Treaty of Waitangi at Taiaroa Head. The Treaty, once signed at Waitangi on the 6th February 1840 was taken by ship to other locations to be signed. It was not till June that it arrived at Taiaroa Head and was signed by chiefs Korako and Karetai.
