That peeking pic is just precious. and those Bantam pics are the cutest. I never knew how SMALL bantam chicks were until this week. They don't look like they could be real!

OK, there she is! I moved mama and babies though because I walked outside and #4 had just hatched and she scooted herself to the food to eat. You could see she was trying to drag them with her, but freshly hatched baby, and last pipped egg were left behind and it is COLD. I don't know if she thought everything was done, or what? Anyway, So I gently moved her and babies into a large dog kennel I already had set up in the house. That way, if she moves and they don't follow, at least it isn't 30degrees out. I know she can take care of them, but really I'm not taking any chances with them. She looks happier now, than she did outside. She is flat as a pancake again and just loving every second of being a mama!

Congratulations!!!! We can't tell you are excited or anything ....
