She still half-heartedly chases the big chickens away if she thinks the babies are being picked on, but that's about it. She even layed an egg yesterday. The big babies are already bigger than most of the banty hens, but they're scaredy chickens still. :) They roam about in the midst of everybody else and only get pecked on if they try for an especially yummy treat. I moved them up to the roost last night so Shorty the broody could sleep in peace. I'll block her off starting tonight so the new babies are protected.City Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17438933389870708287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842605518482670278.post-35642387451421506972009-02-02T14:01:00.000-06:002009-02-02T14:01:00.000-06:00How long do the chicks want to stay with mom all t...How long do the chicks want to stay with mom all the time?Darehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14420839307450880455noreply@blogger.com
