Total miracle! Six out of ten chicks made it into the world, after tragic passing of their mama. Mother hen did absolutely amazing job incubating and protecting clutch of ten fertile eggs that she managed to accumulate by stealing from other hen, hehe. SHe was older hen, but was very lively, strong willed, eating well, grooming herself and was able to keep up with my flock of younger, bigger chickens. Our little pom-pom hen was such a character, with unique sounds. The day she went broody was very welcome event and we were all super excited, imagining her leading tiny chicks in the garden. To our massive shock, we found mama hen passed away, still sitting on her clutch of eggs, just few days ago. Eggs were cold and two chicks were already half way zipped out, barely moving due to cold. One of them survived, second passed in my hand and further five babies hatched in the incubator. Mama hen is missed so much, she was our favorite one, such a darling chicken. She didn't get to see her chicks, nor lead them around the garden. We hope she went to Heaven peacefully. But on a positive note, it is total miracle that six chicks still made it and are doing really well. Five of them are pure Salmon Pekin Bantams and one little chickie is mama hen's baby. We though she wasn't laying any more. Obviously she was and left us little legacy. Three of chicks went to their new home, to live on a small holding and went straight under broody hen who took them as their own and three chicks are currently with us, doing amazingly well.
