Late morning on day 22 and........................ WE HAVE A CHICK

Here's the strange thing, The mum is a partridge wyandotte bantam and the dad is a whait silkie BUT....... The chick is a BLACK silkie

I don't get it. It has five toes and feathery feet. And it definiltely came from the wyandotte bantam because I watched her lay it.

There was also two starting to zip and one piped about an hour ago so I'll go down and check soon.
I will try to upload photos but my camera hasn't ever been on this computer I am useing at the moment. so I might have to load the cd and all that annoying stuff. But I will try

Oh wow, this looks exactly like our nest boxes right now! Same kind of chickens and everything. They are all broody and so three of them have been sharing two nests. They are co-mothering.
