Surprise! Babies!

I knew we had a broody hen sitting on a nest but I wasn't sure how long she'd been sitting by the time I noticed.  Apparently, long enough.  Three little critters.  Nick found them today when he was cleaning out the chicken coop.  Since we'd already run the other chickens out of the coop, we shut the momma and her brood in the coop for the day with just the old blind bird.  

By about 6:00, most of the crew was getting anxious to get back in the coop...

Only until I fed the horses though.
