Here's a couple of Leo's babies! The little one is two days old; I put his egg under a broody, and I found her sitting NEXT to it the next day! I put the cold egg back in the incubator for lockdown, with little hope for it, and here he is (a couple days late)! The other one is about two weeks old,under a different broody. I have broodies like crazy these days; it's so nice to have birds to do my dirty work, especially since I'm leaving for France (for work) tomorrow. So much less work for the caretaker. I told her to just "pick up the hen, shake her a little, and make sure all the babies fall out!"
