Are You My Mommy?

We ended up with three roosters, thanks to Chester. And they all looked like this hen. Unfortunately I could not always find the nests in time and out would walk a chicken with 15 babies and half of them looked like this and were non-egg-layers (if you know what I mean). So Chester and his sons went to the feed store to be sold to someone who needed a rooster and we are back to just hens. It is so much calmer around here now.
These babies replaced the roosters and are good layers. But I didn't want to raise them myself. Enter this crazy brooding hen. I snuck out there and distracted her long enough to set the baby next to her and they just instinctively knew to snuggle under her. I took this photo a few minutes later when they came out to explore. I swear this chick was bonding with her. Although a second later the chick pecked the mom in the beak.
This hen couldn't be happier now. She has a job and I don't have to clean up after these little babies. All is well in the coop.
