I was out in the mud and rain this morning feeding and watering the zoo...and to my surprise I heard the distinct sound of a chirping baby chick!! I followed the sound to a hidden nest full of eggs and two chicks nestled in my goat enclosure. My sweet little hen honey was determined to become a mama for the first time! (Now I know where all my missing eggs ended up!)

She's a good little mama...you can see she's all fluffed up and her wings spread out a little so she can keep her eggs and babies protected from the elements.

Here's the loud little hatchling that alerted me to the hidden nest!

So, I'm pretty sure I know if this is a baby hen or rooster. What do you think it is?
