Sandy is a Daddy!!!!! PICS at 5 weeks old
I was out looking around today and my white silkie girls have 1 little chick and another egg is pipped!!!!! 
They have been with Sandy now for about 10 weeks so I'm pretty sure they are his chicks and not the buff roo' s chicks.
I'm charging my battery now so hopefully I can get pics tomorrow without being pecked alive!!!

Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!! PICS at 5 weeks old
I went out checking on the girls today and I found 1 dead chick, 
the one in the pic above just about dead, and another one who is chirping away and running around.
I decided to bring the 2 in and I am trying to revive the weak one but it doesn't look good.
I don't know what's up with these girls, Are they not allowing the chicks out to eat and drink??? 
I put food and water close by but for some reason they're still not getting to it in time! 
I will get more pics later.

Re: Sandy is a Daddy!!!!! PICS at 5 weeks old
UPDATE......
The weak chick didn't make it! But I did go out to find another newly hatched chick so that's 2 that I've got inside!
There are 2 eggs left and I'll be checking them daily.
I kinda think the girls are intimidated by Sandy, they are in kinda small quarters, and maybe that's why they are not leaving the nest to show the chicks where food and water is! 
I will get any more chicks that hatch and bring them inside and have better accomodations the next time.
