Just had to stop in here quickly and share what we found this morning.
One little chick under its adopted mom.
About four week's ago we put our rooster with a broody chicken (buff orpington) and three other hens into a separate pen and left all of the eggs under her.
One week ago we took the rooster out of the pen and then the other hens.
She had 14 eggs under her all together, now 13 - it will be fun to see how many more hatch!
(The wedding went fantastic - thanks for all the well wishes, thoughts and prayers - I will be making a blog post sharing the pictures later this afternoon from the library.)
Soo sweet! A dream of mine to hatch out chicks. So glad wedding went well, look forward to hear more. Pam x
