I can't believe it - 3 so far!!! Dare I even hope for 100% on my first ever attempt?

Pictures will defo be posted once mum lets them out to play

I tried - honest I did! - but all I got was "mum", the chicks all dived for cover

Wow! what a gorgeous hen! One of my hybrids went broody last year

and I put some eggs under her - 6 out of the 8 hatched out - it is SO exciting!

Well done

Any more yet?

Great how exciting. Sounds like she has accepted them well. She'll get a shock next year if she has to sit for 21days.
Keep us posted of progress.

They're all still a bit camera shy & Patches is only getting up to do what's necessary when I'm not about, the devious little minx

She's a beautiful hen.

Hi all, proud auntie here again - just thought you'd like to know I've posted photos on Chicken Chat

She's a crackin' mum, a real treat to see her and the chicks all doing so well!
