3 eggs hatched, only one little guy made it of those 3. But boy is that little chick a spit-fire!
He or she (?) is super fast. She has been peeping and popping around since birth, after a couple days, she hopped out of the nest box and mom followed. They usually hang out in the coop during the day, but they have come out for the day while the weather was beautiful these last few days. Lu is a super good chicken momma. Taking good care of and protecting little Gwenni. (Finn named her Gwenni, saying she looked like a miniature penguin, get it? Pen-Gwin) Ok.
Only issue I see with this little chick is she is shy of humans since she has a momma to take care of her. So we can’t pick her up and handle her as much as if we had her in a brooder box. Did I mention she is fast? Nearly impossible to catch her. We should have named her Flash.
The alpacas are all doing well, with moose moss to munch.
(and tomatoes…)
Happy Autumn!
