Yeah!!!

Yes!

Cool!
This wasn't intended-
Mistake #1: So we were gone all day.
Mistake #2: I left Hannah with her chicks in the actual nesting box where they hatched yesterday.
I get home at 9 PM- walk into the chicken coop to find a chick on the floor, two feet below the nesting box with its mother and siblings. It was completely still and on its back- most likely killed by the fall and 38°F temp.
But, no, apparently the chick plans to defy the percentage- I picked it up and went to take it away when it opened its eyes and let out this faint peep. I rush over to the heat lamp that luckily I still have yet to take down from the winter, turn it on, and pop my hand & chick right under it. 45 minutes later- chick is standing and protesting for Mama.
That's exactly how 3 chicks and a 13-lb-hen ended up in a cardboard box beneath my bed.

My goodness 13lbs! Poor chick. At least it is ok now

THE HEN IS UNDER YOUR BED TOO!!!
