Say hello to 'Lucky'. I opended the hutch this morning to see an egg jiggling about. Zachary and Sophiana got arrived just in time to see this chick literally bust out of her egg. Betsy (the broody that was on her) started to attach the chick at which point Coco (pictured), who couldnt see what was going on, instively knew and jumped over a 1 foot high divide to intervene. Sad to have to do it but Betsy was removed from the coop, she was a dedicated broody but turned out homicidal.

Coco has adopted the eggs and an aptly named 'Lucky'. It was purely by chance as we would of otherwise discovered a dead chick.

Seven more to hatch.
