Thanks for all the wonderful comments. We are having a lot of fun here today. They are all sneaking out and getting food and water, mama taught them how to eat as we watched. She kept picking up food and dropping it, the babies watched her intensly then started to eat. What a joy. Baby #3 was born last night, the poor thing looked so weak, but this morning it was peaking out from under mama. Here is her/his picture. This chick is a mix of a small old english bantam, either BBR or Blue.
