    Thank you. Kermit picked up four new Wynadotte chicks today, so the brooder is a little busier.

    Millicent is not sitting on her nest tonight, so no idea if any of hers will hatch.

    Thanks. Millicent is now sitting on her nest again, and we'll keep her in there until there are babies - that's the plan anyway!

    Today's surprise is pretty Magnolia, whom we knew was setting for a while, emerged today with seven ducklings! Congratulations pretty momma! She is a Muscovy Duck, and some of her babies are Muscovey and some are "Mullards" - Franklin the Cayuga Duck mated her as well.

    Anyway, here she is ....

    with all seven, albeit a bit blurry


    Here's a better one of her but with just six duckling visible - the other was behind the box


    And here she is schooling one of the baby chickens from Easter, now huge, for getting near HER babies! (all seven visible again)!
