Chicks!


Last night we got 10 chicks!
We wanted to start early this year with chicks.
We gave them to Charlotte, who was broody.  She had only been broody 4 days, so we weren't sure how'd she do with chicks so soon.  But she's been a mother hen several times before, and she accepted them just fine.
I'll keep you updated!

sweet, I have never tried to give the chicks to a broody hen, that would be so much easier.

I've got six eggs under a broody hen right now... here's hoping! Yours look lovely, nice and healthy!

There's just something so sweet about baby chicks with a mama hen in the spring.
