Today is "Day 21" and I think the chicks are hatching. I hear "peeping" and Buffy keeps looking down or at her feathers like she feels something going on. Then she re-positions herself, but stays put! And, I'm not going to touch her....the sweet little momma.
Please forgive me for asking this, if it is a stupid question...Will Buffy smother the babies? I don't comprehend how they can hatch with her weight on top of them?
