Going for a ride...

Giddy up, Mummy :)

Our little chicks that our Pit Game Hen has at the moment, all three of them, lol, are doing really well. Mum is taking great care of them and I saw the funniest thing the other morning...

Went out to inspect how they had all gone after a night with a rather cool breeze. I hoped they had been warm under Mum. She was sneezing a little but hopefully that will get better with some tonic.

The babies were not only fine but look at the little yellow ball of fluff... Yep, it is on her back going for a ride. Had not seen that before. Mum was moving around herding the other two away from me as I got close and the third was up there walking back and forth... Balancing beautifully... :) Was so lovely to see the connection and bond...

Cheers Damaris
