Aren't they cute? Richard discovered them today!
I heard little peeping, and Richard told me that I needed to go inside and look at the babies. So I did. Then I quickly sent Richard inside for my camera while mama hen was up, and I could snap a shot of them. They are all eatting.
There are four in total, and four more eggs. One egg had a part of the shell that was chipped. I don't know if that was external or internal chipping. I guess we will find out soon enough now, won't we?
More? Did you have more chicks? What about the other four eggs?

She's such a good mother. She pecks at the small bit of feed and leaves the big patch for the chicks. Gooood mama.
