Back in March we lost our beloved Wendy to a hawk.
My mom was devastated. My dad was disappointed.
And I was mad.
After losing one of our main egg layers, we decided to incubate some eggs.
About four weeks ago these sweet babies were born.
This picture was taken when they were just four days old.
My cousin is the incubating champ! He incubated six eggs for us with some of my aunt's Swedish eggs as a "trial run" for our Dominickers. Three out of the six eggs made it, and all three hatched!
This next week I plan on incubating a dozen or so more eggs to hatch and sell.
Here's to new babies and new life on the farm!
