Mother Hen and Her Five Baby Chicks

This is not a very good shot of the chicks, but the mother hen and our dog,Sarah, were both getting so agitated over us trying to get a better picture of the little ones, we got this quick shot and decided to call it quits.Just wanted to let everyone know that the one we worked with last night, survived, and seems no more the weaker for his rough entry into the world.I only wish we had thought and got it at all different stages of the delivery from the shell to it's present state.That would have been neat for all to see. Especially those who don't have any exposure to farm life and the like.

(The one in the front with the spots of white on it, is the one we worked with.)
