Emmy 528 Report post Posted April 9, 2013 Thanks for posting those lovely photos . At least you did get some BC but even if you hadnt I'd like to put a bet on you would have been pleased with them all just the same. I love that photo of the two of them in the nest they look so comfortable tucked up in there. Emmy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare L 175 Report post Posted April 9, 2013 Emmy, you would be right on the money with that assumption I do have a sneaky feeling that one of them could be a split BC so that should be that line now secure Those two lazy chicks are still in the nest, I was hoping that they might make an apperance today, they come to the edge of the nest stretch their wings and then go back in and hide Cann't say I blame them, it has rained down here all morning, only just started to dry up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
casamber 60 Report post Posted April 10, 2013 They are gorgeous Clare! That 5th one looks like it has a very faint black cheek... I love the chick sitting next to the 5th one too, it is so pretty Kerry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare L 175 Report post Posted April 10, 2013 Thanks Kerry, The other two fledged today, sadly I was not home to see it. Just been out to check all is OK and make sure they are tucked up safe for the night, and found one is hiding in a nest with another hen that is on her own clutch , due to hatch any day now. They look quite cute together, she is preening the chick, sign of a good mum to be?? The other is hiding in the hanging basket . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
casamber 60 Report post Posted April 11, 2013 Im am so glad they are doing well Clare. That hen sounds like she will make a great mum when her eggs hatch! Kerry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
