Father

The first one to move is the golden chick, now significantly larger, and with a new green tint to its golden feathers. It quickly preceded to cut the web around the moths and pulling them into three separate piles. Soon its siblings wake up, surprised by their sibling’s sudden change in coloration. They then look at the three piles and each move next to one. They spend the next three days living off the moths.
