Chicks!




The little banty that was setting up in the loft has endured being moved to a nest box, but still in the loft, then I took 10 of her eggs away because they were not fertile, then the next day we moved her box down to a small pen so we could put the hay in the loft. Throughout it all she kept right on setting patiently. Yesterday afternoon four tiny little chicks hatched out. They are so cute. In this picture, one of them is hiding under it's mama. I wish I had gotten a picture of Tana, Erinn, Zoe, and Nanay looking at them last night. Tana said she had never seen such a tiny chick.
