Yes I actually had babies this morning!!! We hatched out 6, and counting, chicks. The last 3 times I tried this it didn't work, so I put the 9 yr old in charge, and it worked!!! Just had to share my good news.

It is so much fun to have babies! You guys are lucky. I had to by my babies this year, I really hope I'll get so good Mamas in my brood. I just love to watch chickens they are cool birds and even better to watch when they have babies. I think I will need to build a good enclosed area for everyone. O usually like to let the free range but the foxes got them all last time. I wounder if I had a coop/pen raising party if anyone would come?
