We are all very excited about the addition of Silkie Bantam babies to our flock! These little ones are just one day old now. We have seen 7 for sure, and we lost one overnight.. and I could see unhatched eggs under Mom. But we still don’t know for sure how many chicks have hatched successfully. We had 16 eggs at the time she started sitting them. Can’t wait until Momma starts parading them all around so we can get a closer look! Better pics to come when I’m not trying to shoot through a small coop opening so as not to disturb Marie & chickies!

This was taken a few weeks ago, our fruit and nut trees have since dropped their blossoms and produced little baby fruits and nuts.
