The Babies are HERE!

4 New babies

I have new babies, 2 black and 2 yellow. Hungry as a Kirby vacuum. I am having a hard time keeping track of the black ones as they hide in the shadows and under mom who is a dark gray.
I just checked and the 4 or more eggs that hadn't hatched are gone. No shells, no nothing. I guess they were cannibalized. Nothing goes to waste around chickens. I was hoping to have a couple more hatch. No such luck. The roosters are having a field day though.
4 roosters to service 9 hens means there's plenty of nooky to go around.  As long as they keep laying I'm happy.
