Millie is one of the “Crettyard Women” (aka Soo’s harem):
Went broody a few weeks ago, and we arrived home to discover she is now a proud mammy! Hopefully it’ll turn out to be a hen rather than a roo this time…

The expression on that hen is of the “you lay a finger on My Baby and you lose it to the elbow” variety.

Went out earlier to check on the new arrival, only to find the coop completely deserted. After a few seconds panic, thought I’d better check round the wooded bit round the back…
PS - this time, we’re playing safe with the name!

The Mammy looks rather inscrutable. Is she pleased with her Chick?
