It is ranger Theo's turn to weigh the chicks! Now that QT is one week old, the rangers will only be weighing once a day for the next week. Then they will weigh once a week until QT fledges. YRK is a bit snappy again but Theo is very calm and gently picks up QT to weigh and check. He will put QT back under YRK as she nips at his sleeve. In and out - ranger Theo finishes and departs to weigh all the other chicks! Thank you for watching!
