Chicks go for a walk with Mama Bev

They are a about a week old. You can’t keep them confined, and Bev takes them all over the yard. The falther, Archie (Copper Marin, is watching.

Bev was broody and a few weeks ago we gave her some eggs. The eggs were from Veronica (Copper Marin), Gigi (Creve Couer), Daisy (buff orpington), and Thelma (easter egger). Not sure, but it loos like we lucked out with three hens and only one rooster, but I can’t really tell.

They all look like their Copper Marin dad, but only the true marin chick has feathered feet. The buff oprington cross is brown but much darker than a true Buff Orpington chicken.
