That's one large clutch for one broody hen to hatch. I am impressed!
ReplyDeleteAdorable. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDelete..no video at work..cuckoo..amazing. A bird who does not hatch their own eggs..talk about lazy!..I want that job!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! One of my Welsummers went broody in July and I have two home hatched chicks from her endeavors. Happily, she was also willing to adopt the 16 Buff Orpingtons I ordered and slipped under her the night hers were due to hatch!
ReplyDeleteHow cute. That is a lot of babies!
