Ended Broodies & Babies Video Contest

Not an entry
Pippin dust bathing with her first chicks in June 2021. Pippin is and was an amazing mother but unfortunately her only pullet died and I had to rehome the 2 cockerels (to good homes of course). In the video at the end you can see Blue watching them. At that time, Blue had only just been integrated, and Pippin decided to adopt her. I used to find all of them (Pippin, Blue, and the chicks) sleeping together in the nest box at night. In November, Pippin and Blue shared a batch of chicks together. There was an 100% hatch rate and only one cockerel.
Anyway, enjoy the video of Pippin and her polish babies!
