sooooooo... we have lots of chickens & they all go back in the coops at dusk, we do a head count & close the door.
one of our chickens a silver spangled hamburg started not being present in the coop at night but would turn up in the morning ~ this has been going on for some time...
then yesterday morning she turns up with these! :
...15 chicks!!! she'd laid her eggs elsewhere & been sitting on them.
i can't wait to see what they look like! the dad (Liberace) looks like this:
& is a force to be reckoned with. We may have developed a new breed!!
It's so cool though not having to put a heat lamp on them ~ Mum has it all under control & is doing a marvelous job!
