We need pictures of the babies! You know we all love baby pictures! Tripletts! WOW, are you gonna have to bottle feed one of the tripletts or try to get the doe with the single to nurse it?

I had a chicken that had that and the guy told me to put WD 40 on her legs. And it worked.

You all will have to wait until tomorrow to see pictures. I forgot my camera. As far as the triplets I am watching them closely. There is one that I think may have been the last born that is the weakest. I am watching her nurse at least a couple of times a day. I may end up having to supplement.

I'm officially a baby snatcher. I took chicks from my OEGB hen this fall, now I took all Gertie's babies, and Gretta's baby away from their mamas

I know it is the best for them, those millie babies were getting very chilly, and Gretta didn't even pay attention to her baby anymore. Half the time she would move if the baby was trying to snuggle up next to her!! We found the chick on the ladder, all by her lonesome

Poor thing. All she did was stand around and cry all day, so I'm sure she'll be happier.
Heidi the BTB jap was trying to be a snot when I put them in there, but she calmed down after she saw how many there were! I kept hearing babies crying and went to check, thinking the big ones were picking on the little ones. Nope, the big ones were being cry babies, guess they don't like their new roommates!

Oh, and I also got Duchess in a cage, so she will definitely be coming along for the ride tomorrow Cindy!! She has been laying a lot lately (the only one of my birds that is!), so I'm sure once she gets used to her surroundings she will start back up!

I'm gonna take the white pullet, and no more givesies backsies.

I'm considering being an egg snatcher if that stoopid hen doesn't stop gathering too many eggs under to keep them all warm.

I dont care about the mutt eggs, but Cindy has eggs under her that keep getting pushed out and cooled off.
