After being gone for many hours. Mom called out to Shadow a few times for a break.. He, eventually, arrives to give Mom some much needed relief. He see's his second precious baby for the first time and both together for the first time. Precious baby 1 adorably peers up at him :)
He carefully walks around them before lying down.
Shadow is only around 4 years old. Very young for a new Dad.
We didn't even really know if he was viril enough to fertilize the eggs but, luckily, sure enough he was ! :)
This is all a new learning experience for him....
He was very bewildered when he first saw his eggs but then he quickly became a great incubator that Mom could depend on :)
I am sure he will get used to the bobble heads soon enough..
Many behaviors are learned but stocking the pantry is more instinctual... As soon as the sort of shock wears off .LOl,
I'm sure he'll be a perfect Dad and provider. He is very smart, a quick learner with a strong desire to please Mom :)
Until then, super special wonderful Mom will make sure the babies don't want for a thing .
