| This is Black Betty |
We thought we lost her a few weeks ago because she didn't come in to the chicken coop to roost at night. There are coyotes around, they howl at the trains going by during the night. I assumed she ended up being a chicken dinner for them.
Imagine my surprise as I was having my morning coffee on the deck...
They are the cutest little chicks, I didn't separate the new family from the rest of the flock. At night, Betty just roosts on the floor of the coop with her babies tucked underneath her.
Sometimes we have to help gather the brood together, the little ones forget how to get into the coop!

We also have Thelma with a brand new chick, "Teensie".
