BTW Skeat, whose that chickie in your new avatar?
That is one of our mommas. Kid in 4H projects:)She had 2 lay their eggs out and now she has 3 more sitting for they want their own too:)Have to say it is cute and love it when they are out walking w/momma in that new grass. Too cute:)So, put a pic in the avatar to share w/everyone...spring is here!:)Skeat.........interesting is the one momma dumped her large group of chicks for the rooster(have we not heard this story before?!). So the other momma adopted them. Which involves warmth and the help of finding worms, etc and protection:)
