Broody bantam!

Understandable. I’m a bit of a newbie to keeping chickens, but I have done quite a bit of research, and have been studying bird biology in college lol.

Good luck with the hatch!

Sure, here’s the flock, and Tux with her last baby. The roos are the black bantam and the blue ameraucana. The photos are from the same week so Tux wasn’t in the group photo.

Tux doesn’t seem fully committed to brooding yet, she was up for a long time yesterday, but she’s still exhibiting broody behavior. We’re going to keep fake eggs under her for a couple more days to make sure she she’s fully broody before giving her any real eggs.

I did get some more photos of her though for your viewing pleasure.
The Wyandotte behind her is the one that hatched her out.

She was sitting again after the others started laying today, so we ended up giving her 7 eggs. It doesn’t look like she’s having any trouble covering them, so hopefully she stays on them.

She is so very pretty! Thank you so much for sharing pictures of your bird!
