One of our Barred Rock hen tried to hatch 5 eggs but they died
So we went out and got 5 chicks to shove under her butt.. They are Cute little fuzzy butts!
From Left to right: Bat, Lacey, Snow Flake, Noodle, and Thistle.. And of course their surrogate mommy!




Bat - Black Ameraucana (sp?), Lacey - the more silvery Silver Laced Wyandotte, Thistle - the darker Silver Laced Wyandotte, Snow Flake - (California?) White Leghorn [Snow has Black dots], Noodle - Gold little Ameraucana (sp?)
Another Barred Rock Hen hatched 3/6 ducklings.. The other 3 hatched but died...
Just now I went to get pictures a couple more pictures of them and found one of the 3 dead.... So now only 2 are here
Cloud (Left; also the one that died today
) and Jumping Bean

Pigwigeon and Jumping Bean

These are a Blue Swedish Mallard cross... But I am not sure of Pigwigeon.. But all babies were blue/gray with a bib except Pigwigeon.
And here is poor blanch... She went missing Monday or Tuesday... I hope she comes back home </3

She is a Splash Andalusian (sp?)
The picture is sideways.. Hm.
