Surprise!


Hello Ladies!
I know I have not posted in a little while but I think you will forgive me when you see what has kept me so busy!

A few days ago we found these:


Our lovely lady chickens had left them, so it was up to our gentleman Willie to take care of them.


And he did. On Wednesday, the eggs began to hatch.



Now, if you will look right by his wing you will see a little head! Mom found them first and called me over.


And look! Are they not precious?


We got there just in time to see another one hatch! I know some people think that newly hatched chicks look gross, but I think they are still cute! Wet, but cute!


Our little baby pulling it's way out of the egg.



Sweet!





Little baby with Daddy!



So you tell me, have you ever seen a Rooster take the Hens responsibility like this? I did not even know they did this until he started sitting on eggs. Talk about a surprise! I was staring at him trying to figure out what the heck was going on!
