A Chick is hatched

The Cottage is the proud home of an Australorp chick. Born on 21 November 2017 .

It took 21 days, or three weeks, for  one egg to hatch in an incubator.

Because it was lonely it adopted a mum. A Silkie Hen
                                             
Running free - the Silkie really looks after the chick
One way to keep cool on a hot day!
