We have two mama hens hatching out nests full of baby chicks in our sunroom. That is all. ;D

We had old rooster that pecked me hard right under the kneecap, you know that soft tender spot, for lunch. Oh, I guess that would be back burner chicken :D

:D Stealth Chicken is not really a very good momma hen... she tried to "help" the chicks out of their eggs once they started hatching and ultimately killed them. So, I gave her remaining five eggs to Pretty, and hope that she'll do better. So far only one of her eggs has hatched and we have a cute, fuzzy black and yellow chick.

nope, no pics of the massacre... it was pretty bad. Silly chicken sat on that nest for three weeks just to destroy the chicks!
