Thank you for the info and encouragement! I know I will baby her for a long time........

Thank you so much for saying that. I have 8 chickens that all have names and I love each one of them, but because of this I have really bonded with her So many people can't understand why I am doing it and I don't get that. I am so happy for this website of people that understand...
