We have babies!

Well, at least one that I know of. The chicks were due yesterday, but snowflake never hopped off of her nest, so I couldn’t tell if they’d hatched yet. But, just a few minutes ago, I went outside and heard some peeping. One little chick had just hatched (I believe this one is an Ameraucana and Black Australorps mix)! YAY!!! Babies!
You can see her peaking her black head out from under moms wing.

In celebration of the upcoming hatching, Kaia and painted the broody house and the feeder. I really like the color they add to the yard!

  1. We love babies in the neighborhood…even chicken ones. By the way Leif is a doll, and he is so friendly!!! I will be back soon for more holding time.

  2. Love the color! Btw, if you’ll be needing to rid yourself of any pullets in the future, I’m interested. We were hoping to add 5-7 more hens to the flock.
