About 1:00 a.m. the babies started off with chomping down the good stuff. Then Momma came hobbling in. Poor thing cannot put any weight on her hind leg. She made nice to the babies and they let her in to feed. 
Finally the bucks came in to clean up the rest. Dix has agreed to not to put out apples or carrots anymore, just birdseed (that has a little cracked corn). We have no objection to the neighbors putting out salads. 
Note to file: I changed the bulb in the security light. I was concerned the flickering was from a short somewhere but it turns out an old mercury vapor bulb can get that way. It illuminated Momma who was standing at the back door.
