Guess who adopted the new chicks?

NO. Not the dog (although he really likes the "treats" they make and is always watching over them).

It's our little, broody OEG.
It was a little crazy at 1st b/c the chicks loved to peck at her big, shiny eyes. They were practically attacking her!

The heating pad is in place for the overflow chicks. I'm going to keep them inside, though.

Also.... Cookie is going broody! Looks like I'll have my master broody for all the school chicks!

Loving all the baby pictures and broodies! They're all awesome!

My little black showgirl FINALLY started laying! She's been in with the silkie feathered lavender ameraucana roo for MONTHS! End goal is blue egg laying lavender showgirls. I know it will take a couple generations but I finally have eggs to work with lol

That's OK. They're still beautiful birds and had to be incubated at some point.

She certainly is. I thought you might recognize her.

I honestly didn’t think it was her! I was thinking her coloring was off when she was young, but she looks great now.
