Guess what hubby found this morning going to collect eggs?

my Milli fluer went broody, she was laying on a few of her eggs, well one of my other egg layers went broody too about the day after, i was upset, becouse i wanted there eggs, well hubby said so then put some eggs under and i will keep takeing the fresh eggs out,
so i did i put some of the seabright eggs under her, the father is a serama, and guess what

i have babys from both broodys.

they look like they are a few days old.

i took pics of my blrw that my camera battery died before i could get them downloaded. i am going to try and get them up today and try and see what colors and if we can sex them yet or not.
they are getting so big, i opened up their brooder cage so now they have double the space, 20 chicks at @4 weeks its amazing the space they need. and since the brooder is out in the old coop they need to be kept warm also so i put plastic over what is usally the wire part of the cage. i really wanted to get the cages dusted out but with all these babies needing heat i figure i should wait.
