Man you are hilarious - I laughed until I cried at this one!

A few years back I went to Kidwell Farm in Herndon, VA. One of the Sows had a litter of about 8 piglets. There was indeed a runt! He was less than half the size of his litter mates. What surprised me was how gentle & affectionate the other piglets were! They never bullied him or kept him from nursing! One of his siblings actually took a break from nursing to nuzzle and give him some love! Damnest thing I've ever seen!

The rest of the chick's got real quiet for a minute...

Storks take off on a long migration after the chicks mature. They fly down south thousands of miles. In order to make the trip successfully the chicks must grow to proper, adult size. They do that in the nest. These birds have it locked in their DNA to weed out their flock and remove the weak chicks in the nest. Weak may mean small or other reasons. Another thing the adults deal with is food supply. DNA works again and regulates how much food to get for the chicks. They watch the chicks eat very carefully. You have to remember they're doing this fueled only by their DNA and experience which varies greatly among them. In their world everything is food. Your brother is food. So is everything you can cram in your mouth. The other animals around you think you're their food. And so on.

Is this common in storks? Saw another nest and the mom did the same thing... I do know in Barn owls that sometimes in a large clutch the last to hatch may end up as food for the others....survival of the fitest... some die so others survive. Also, gene pool strength ...never pleasant to see ever.

It is coomon in storks - they usually lay 5 eggs thel after some 3 weeks sort the smallest, weakest one out and ... remove, push out from the nest. Always. And the smallest, weakest one is so b/c usaully it is the last that hatched and the older ones push it away from feeding. The strongest = the healthiest and well fed. The poor last one is "a spare" only to survie in case something happened to another chick. Similar for eagles : 1-3 eaglets and the oldest is the most aggresive so the best fed so the strongest, the oldest boinks the other one hard from the day one, if there are 3 eaglets it happens the youngest is killed off by the oldest. I also saw a stork (and also an eagle) to invade another stork's nest (for an eagle it'd be another eagle's nest) while unguarded and take a little one of the same kind to feed his own youngs.

The parent no longer see it as one of its chick, but an intruder & prey item to eat. The parent will most likely feed the rest of the chicks with their sibling's broken down body.

The update here is the male stork disappeared and the female tried to feed the little ones. But having to juggle guarding the nest and getting food for the chicks, the female leaves for longer and longer periods of time where even food intervention from humans wasn't enough. Eventually, the 4th one starved to death while the 3 others were taken by humans. I believe the mother has not returned either

The parent stork is managing food demands based on chick needs and availability in terms of distance and time. The decision to reduce her clutch by one by killing and eating the smallest is a dispassionate calculation to recycle calories, while avoiding attracting predators towards the nest by merely dropping its corpse off the nest edge.

2:16 second smallest one (front) starts hiding knowing what time it is. Must be freaking out knowing it's the new smallest

Stork goes silence of the lambs and starts feeding the chicks it’s own a sibling.

My question is, what is the mother doing to find the weakest chick? How does she know? Im wondering if the process involves what we see here. It seems she is pecking around at her offspring testing their feathers? Or testing their head strength? I see when she does it to the smallest one, it has trouble resisting the test. Its head wobbles much more and it all around seems more disoriented. So maybe that is how she gauges which one is the weakest? Very interesting to see millions of years of evolutionary instinct in action.
