    UPDATE w/ new pics-A Tale of Four Broodies: Currently Day 21

    Several weeks ago we were thrilled when our little gray lavender Ameraucana became the first broody of the season. Shortly after she went broody, she was joined by another hen. About a week later, a third hen went broody. Day 1--We divided up two dozen fertile eggs between them...

    UPDATE w/ pics! Broody hen's eggs are hatching. Now what?
