Chick #3 Hatches! Jackie and Shadow’s Fuzzy Triplets Are Complete
It’s an exciting day as Chick #3 has officially hatched, completing the trio of fluffy bundles Jackie and Shadow have been eagerly awaiting. After much anticipation, Chick #3 worked tirelessly to break free from its shell yesterday, and by the early hours of the morning, the final piece of the shell fell away. By 2:11 AM, the chick was visible, its feathers drying as it adjusted to the world around it. While Chick #3 made its grand entrance, Jackie kept the progress quiet through the night, giving herself some well-deserved rest as the chicks stayed safe beneath her warmth.
At 6:13 AM, Jackie introduced all three chicks to the world during the morning feeding. The trio, fully visible and looking healthy, excitedly jostled for position, all eager to enjoy a well-earned breakfast. Despite being the newest arrival, Chick #3 still has a bit of its yolk to sustain it for the next few days. As the fluffy family of three basks in their new life together, they will undoubtedly bring smiles to anyone lucky enough to witness their adorable antics. It’s clear that Jackie and Shadow’s family is complete with the arrival of their precious triplets!
