proud mother!

Well, after 21 days... actually 22 days of sitting on a clutch of eggs, Henrietta is the proud mother of four teensy little chickie-pies!

One tan and brown, one gray, two yellow and brown weighing as much as a feather and healthy as can be.

Mother is NOT resting comfortably. She's chasing chicks around the hen house, keeping all of the nosey Aunts away.

And really, the Aunts aren't interested in the chicks... it's the chick crumble that they want... those fat, pushy Aunts...
