So cute. Some of those little chicks are tough!
Yep... life is chaos... we try so hard to get all the conditions just right and against all odds sometimes it just happens, lol...
That's interesting, I wonder...
Aww, so sweet. I was just wondering because I've never had a broody and the only time I get to see them in person is at my neighbors and I'm surprised any of his animals are alive! I went there today and his truck was there but I couldn't find him anywhere...his last broody only has one chick left, all the others have been picked off by predators and the poor little chick was locked in the call duck enclosure! I'm sure it was an accident but that enclosure is his fav and I didn't want any of the young calls to get out, I tried to open the door just enough to fit my arm through and the chick ran away from me! I kept thinking about it getting cold or falling into the pool or the others being mean to it (there are 4 pheasants in that enclosure too). Poor little guy just kept crying for mama! Not sure how I got off on that tangent...
Oh my goodness! So cute! That's incredible. Love the story! Welcome to the world little guy!
I don't name any of mine. And this is the reason. I keep hearing that your favorite ones are always the ones to get attacked by predators. So sad.![]()
Or keel over for no apparent reason... :/
Except SC... that little bugger is running around like he owns the whole yard...
