Chicken in a box...
We have been keeping an eye on Harriet and I was getting a little nervous everytime she left the nest. I guess I should be trusting her animal instincts for hatching eggs but I would rush to the eggs and feel to see if they were still warm. I didn't think they were warm enough and thought she was being neglectful, but still hoped that all was well. She was sitting in a different way the other day and a little higher than usual. Next day when we checked there were two wee chickens chirping away....yes...she did it! They are now rushing every where with Mum, always seem to be busy and in a hurry.
