Baby silkie...hatched overnight, last night.

I am hoping he ends up looking like his mom!

Haven't decided yet if I am going to keep this guy, but isn't he beautiful!

Henrietta with 2 of her 8 (or maybe 9) babies. They started hatching Sunday early evening and finished sometime yesterday. Henrietta is a bantam cochin and most of her babies this time are silkies.

Meet Dixie, she is the sweetest chicken! One of the 14 that I hatched about 24 weeks ago, she follows me around, wants to be petted and held and has become my absolute favorite. Plus she's pretty.

These little babies are 2 weeks old. The darker one is a Silkie and the lighter one is a Porcelain Bantam Cochin. Still so Itty bitty.

I currently have two broody seramas. I moved them into their own pen so they won't be bothered.

Currently, they each have 1 egg, but i have 6 additional serama eggs in the incubator that I will transfer over to them, once I have verified that they are developing.
