​​It will not end well for #4

if there is not enough food or or if the food is too large, the energy expended fighting the giants at the nest will be depleted faster than it can be replenished

​​Ogris the first time checked the fourth one

Freshly hatched chicks can survive the first 24 hours on yolk sac reserves, but after that, they urgently need food. Without it, dehydration and muscle weakness set in very quickly, making it difficult for them to swallow even small fish. Furthermore, being constantly covered and weighed down by larger, stronger siblings consumes a lot of their remaining energy.

14:01 all have eaten

fingers crossed! enough and good sized food for every chick!
