Happy Birthday Hannah!
You now share your birthday with some chickens. I don't know how many, as I have to get to bed before midnight as I am working tomorrow, and it takes these poor chicks so long to break through the egg, it's agonizing watching them!
I was sitting at the computer this morning & I could hear chirping. My first thought was we had starlings nesting in the eaves, but reality told me this wasn't possible as we had made the eaves secure. Guinness heard the chirping too, so I wasn't making it up. I Googled to see if it was possible to hear chicks from inside the egg & apparently one can - And I did! 10 hours later, there we have it!
I don't know when these 2 little guys broke free but they are beginning to dry & fluff a little, they stumble around for a bit, then seem to nap & then stumble more.
I have to get to bed, will see them early tomorrow - you can bet on that
This is new life - it's amazing!
