Last week was a bittersweet week. We had to rehome our sweet little bantam rooster because of a neighbor's complaint (roosters are illegal where we live). The good part was that we found him a wonderful home, and sent along our least favorite hen to keep hiim company there.

To take some of the sting out of this parting, we want to hatch out some chicks this spring. One of our hens settled down on a clutch of eggs last night, and this morning she's still sitting tight. Yaaa!

We plan to go and get some d'Uccle hatching eggs right quick and replace the eggs under her right now with them. We're so excited!
