Meet the babies!

Everybody is eating, drinking and no pasty butts yet! And Sasha is so excited to have new babies to mind. Sneaking them under mama tonight

Here they are all cleaned up and fluffy (probably the cleanest they will ever be again!)

I popped the babies under Millie and other than to peck me for taking her eggs, she settled right in on top of them and was making little noises at them so I am hopeful it's a success! I'll sneak in to check on them again before I go to bed and then try to get out super early tomorrow morning to check. I have a floor nest ready to swap them into tomorrow but for now they are in the nesting boxes that are high up with a good size lip to keep the babies from getting out.

Be on the lookout for ticks. I was working in the garden and later had one crawling on my chin.

They're terrible right now! I feel like the last year or 2 they just keep getting worse.

I got a little peak at Mama after I moved them to a floor nest so they'd have access to food and water. Everybody seems to be doing great!

I wish I could! I'm up to my eyeballs in animals. Got a puppy, that brings me up to two dogs and four cats.
I highly recommend being a foster for anyone who is able to, it was very rewarding. Especially when Molpet adopted her!

Hi guys! I’m in the Chicago area and was wondering if anyone is selling or would be willing to sale me some hatching eggs?
