I'm so glad you are finally getting to keep some of those cuties!
Oh yes, so many broodies here too! I was up to 9, I'm down to around 4 or 5, hard to say as I have 2 or 3 that I think are just getting started as I'm finally getting a few others to break... It's an ever evolving situation :lau
That is completely adorable!
You have a really pretty flock there Debbie :love

Oh wow, she definitely would have to see pretty well to get mash off Nosy's beak! Or maybe she's super near sighted?
Maybe for some reason she really shut down and it just seemed she was blind but she actually wasn't?
Black hens are versatile :highfive:
