Chicks!

Three weeks ago today, we put our broody hen on a nest of 11 green eggs and 3 brown eggs. Today, six of the eggs hatched (5 green and one brown). One brown egg shattered earlier this week. And, there are still 6 green and 1 brown eggs under the hen.

The six chicks all look like the little barred rock chicks we got in October.

We brought them inside and set them up in the kitchen under the heat lamp where they seem to be snoozing and doing well.

Brogan, of course, has resumed his old post from when we had the chicks in the house before.
