There's a Fox in the Henhouse

Fox Mulder that is...

I named our young rooster Fox, since one of his flock is named Agent Scully.
You X-Files fans will recognize this...

Actually last year, I thought he was a she.
He was born hatched here, just last summer.

 It's hard to believe that little chick, turned into this beautiful rooster.
Fox.

And now, he returned to his birthing hatching grounds with his own flock. 

Nine (9) beautiful hens,
who lay gorgeous eggs for us each and every day.

Side bar:  We actually have two other flocks also...with a total of 4 roosters on site.
Other roosters are: 
DiNozzo, Stewie, and Charlie Sheen (yes, he looks JUST like him...seriously!)

Until tomorrow, God willing.

Little Hatchling Hattie ~ Week Three

It's now been three weeks since little Hattie was hatched.

She still never leaves Mama's side...and vice versa.

The Hatchling

Born (er...hatched) last Sunday afternoon. 

This little one is already turning color...

And Mama doesn't let her get a foot from her side.

The Wee Farm is a battlefield of crows, Blue jays, rabbits, and goats, 

which cause Mama to be protective.

I love the all-day-long happy chirping ~ heard within my Wee House walls, as the pair search for grub.

The hen house is now back to normal.

No more nest sitting.

And the proud Papa, our Java rooster, Mr. Jitters, has a new spring in his step.
