Hopefully Thanksgiving I will grab one of my older kids & they can teach me how to post pics. I have been instructed a couple times on BYC, but I always mess it up. One of my friends tried to help & she DELETED pics of my broody and babies. So, gonna wait until one of the kids are in town.
 
TODAYS UPDATE!!!


Snowballs chicks have hatched!! She has got 11!!!


She has also helped me hacth a goose egg, that the mother abandoned!! Sadly this gosling has a problem with it's neck, but it seems to be getting better!!


This is my favorite chcik in her batch!!
