Broody Nora's New Babies! Pics! ~ ~NEW pics post #43~~

[Serrin]

Yay for Nora!!! I'm so glad to hear that her behavior previously could be attributed to first time broody jitters, and not to being a bad and evil momma! Looks like she has the situation well in hand. And the babies are just total cuteness overload!

Beautiful hens and chicks! Love to see those pics of mamas and their babies! Thanks for sharing!

Nora's a beaut!

I think June is a cutie!

June's baby, hatched last, is larger than the first two babies, even Riley's who hatched the day before. I'm thinking maybe it's a cockerel. June herself is fairly chunky, though. I think Riley's is female, but not really sure on the BR. It's lighter than most pullets, but has a small headspot and some dark on the legs. Should be obvious when the wings come in, though.

Beautiful chicken family; great pics! I love looking at all the gorgeous chickies.

Thanks, Cat.

Yes, I remember Miss Holly kept us guessing a bit, Kathy. I hope this is a little girl because I'd love to have another girl out of Fern. It's Holly's full sibling! Honestly, I don't need anymore birds, however, since Dutch has gone to live with lockedhearts, this will be my last chick out of him.

I hope it is a girl, too. Yes, you have to keep her.
