Surprise Surprise SURPRISE!

Imagine my surprise when Bryce came running in the house to let me know that while he was checking for eggs he found this!  There is a story here...

A couple of weeks ago one of my Light Brahma hens disappeared.  I decided she had been a midnite snack for a predator :-( however I was pleasantly surprised when John found her sitting on a nest under a tractor!  We had to use the tractor so after marking the eggs so I would know which ones they were I just shoved them under one of my other hens in the chicken coop that has been determined to be broody.  Well, this little one hatched!!!!!  It's actually the first baby chick to be hatched at Moonlight Farm!  Whoo hoo!!!!
