Fifi arrives!


Queenie became very broody during October, so we decided to get her some fertilised eggs to sit on from the Collingwood Children’s Farm. Nothing happened for a few days, but then close to the 21 day mark, two chickens hatched during the night or early morning.

Unfortunately, one chick was dead, but the other one – Fifi was fit and well. This phone is Fifi when she was one day old and staying very close to mum. Fifi is a Faverolle and being raised by a Barnevelder – but don’t tell her!
