Babies

 

 


 


About 6 months ago I got 3 new chickens off a friend that were meant to be all female, since they were young at that point it was hard to tell whether they were definitely girls or boys. One morning we heard 2 of them crowing which meant they were boys so we sent them back. A few days ago my friend dropped off a mummy chicken with her 6 babies for us temporarily, since the little ones are too young to separate so we are going to wait until they are about 6 weeks and then pick 2 girls, she will take the mum and the other babies back. Look at them, they are so cute!
