Chicks and their mamas

We have chicks this year, 3 of my "non-broody" breed layers went broody  and after having a plan for the males of the hatch, and there will be some, I let them have some eggs. Even the phrase "breaking a broody" sounded very violent. It was a great experience, lots of learning about this being broody and hen raising chick thing and there are many pictures and some of the adventures on facebook and if you have questions about broody hens and their chicks, check out this page MAMAS and BABIES and the many sub-pages.

I like the blogspot format, but after the "government spies on everything" on facebook and blogger etc  revelation, I am attempting to move what I have to share onto the chicksandweeds website and some of it onto QuanYinGardens from now on.

You are invited to come over and I'd be delighted to see you there.

Blessings and Happy Chickens to you
