On Monday we had a nest of chicks hatch! There are 8 total and they are all healthy, cute and fuzzy. The mother hen is one of our semi-wild chickens so the nest is outside of the chicken pen. We will not pull the chicks and raise them inside, but instead just let mama hen raise them and let nature take it's course. We'll see how many survive the predator gauntlet-mainly mongooses, feral cats, and Hawaiian hawks.
