it seems to be warm day - everyone is painting

At this age, their thermoregulation is still incomplete, which is why parents often shade or protect them. (Usually only after thee weeks.)
I read that it depends more on the chicks' weight and body mass than their exact age. Heavier chicks can regulate their body temperature much better.

Natalio brought a small freshwater turtle, but it was too difficult for the chicks to swallow, so it remained uneaten.
