Today I gave the babies a treat of mashed up eggies, they loved them just like there mama. Mama ate them right out of my hand like she always did before the chicks arrived. I was happy to see that, because she's been nipping me every chance she gets. If we pick up one of her babies she's not happy and gets all excited, the babies chirping makes her crazy, she wants them back. I can't wait to see how the others handle the new kids in the coop. I'm going to wait until it warms up before taking them back to the coop. I just heard on the new that we might be getting more snow on Monday, there talking inches, YUK. Where is Spring?
