Thought I would post since there’s been no activity on this thread since Tuesday! 🤣
Himawari checking out some of the big chickens.😊
She’s a funny little girl. Tends to wander off from the rest of the flock when “free ranging” and doing her own thing.

Her mother, Zelda, was the exact same way.😊
Haha, so cute! :love
 
I know!❤️ No matter how many times I do this, it never gets old! I just love watching the little ones pop out of their shells and seeing what they look like.🥰
Yes!! So do I! Never gets old, I could sit and watch mother hen with newly hatched chicks for hours if I had the time! Chicken tv :pop I'd rather watch the chickens then actual tv!!
 
Here's pics of my chicks now, I've really gotta delete some chick pics as I've gone crazy taking photos I'm at 94% capacity and I've got more hatching tomorrow!
..there are 2 chicks that keep jumping up on Smokey ☺️

I let the gate open and one of the chicks explored and fell off the ramp, mother hen didn't follow, 2 other hens started pecking the little cutie so I quickly picked him up and put him back safely with mumma.. I keep the gate shut now they'll have to stay in that little space for a while longer or only open it when I'm there - Smokey hasn't been out yet even when I have opened the gate she has no interest in leaving 🤷
