Proud New Momma and her first peep!

[HappyHenMama]

My little OEGB Goldie hatched her first peep last night. I couldn't be more excited and she is certainly a proud new Mom showing off her new baby to me this morning!

Congrats! I can't wait to have a broodie... incubating is getting old.

That's my bantam roo in my avatar. He is the best Roo I've ever had. Great disposition...very protective of his flock and an easy going guy around me. Couldn't be happier with my bantys! Good luck on getting a Roo out of your hatch!

I'm pretty new at this and I've never hatched before, so this is our first all the way around. So far little Goldie is a very good Mom. Now I have to figure out where to put her and her new peep so my Barred Rock doesn't hurt the new peep. Any suggestions??? I could buy a small starter hutch for Goldie and baby to keep them safe I guess.

So cute! Last year I had a duck go broody and hatch 8/9 eggs. She was such a good momma

You could try to build a little box big enugh for the hen and chick/s and put it somewhere where the br couldnt find it or put holes in the box and keep it in the coop.

Hmmm...that might work. I have some scrap wood and some old screens from windows. Thanks.
