Broody Hen

At the back of the garden, we kept a pair of local chicken - gifts from TK's eldest sister. They are not as small as seramas but ,still, they are miniatures of the normal local chicken.



The hen had been laying eggs every alternate day ... final is a clutch of nine eggs though one was broken when it fell off the box on which she laid the eggs.

Last Friday (7/1/2011), the hen started to incubate the remaining eight eggs.


I am not sure if we will get to see eight miniature chicks in three weeks time ....
