Chickens

Dd sold lavender at our local market till she had enough money to buy three little chicks and enough food to raise them till they could free range.
She was very disappointed that they would not sit on their eggs to produce more chicks.
We brought an incubator.
She chose 9 eggs waited a month and two hatched. Sadly butterfly died even though dd helped it a great deal.
Cornflower and later ds penguin have become beloved pets.
Now with much excitement dd found eggs in the 'babies' hutch.
