Perched on my knee.

All the eggs have hatched. We have 17 chicks in all of different sizes and colours. The little chap in the photo was happy to sit on my knee while I took his picture.
My son is very happy to have hatched so many chicks. In particular he nursed one little chick with splayed legs and got him up and walking by strapping his legs to give him more stability. He should be a chicken vet!
Today I am thankful for lighter evenings, a thought proving talk at church and a warm cosy fire in the Wood burning stove.
