If you've never watched a Mama hen theaching her babies to scratch for food, it is just precious!

We had the pleasure of wathing this last summer and it is incredible to watch their bonding.

Do you think that the moms are color blind?
 
They are definately color blind.

This one would fight to the death over the barred rock baby, which clearly isn't related.
 
Too cute! Don't you just love watching them?? It's also funny when they feel the need to protect their chicks. They round up their chicks and puff all up. . . I sure wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of a mad mama hen!!! LOL
