Babysitting

So I guess I should clarify my post from yesterday.
I said my dad wasn't raising any baby guineas/chickens, which he's not.
Meaning there aren't any babies in the incubator or baby chick pen.

But, there are a few mama hens that are raising their own babies.

And yesterday, one of those babies got separated from its mama.
Due to conflicting reports, I'm not sure if the baby got separated due to Kyle and Reed, or if they saved the day by finding a wayward baby.

Either way, my dad found them holding a baby chick.



So, we had to do some babysitting until mama hen came back (she had gone out into the pasture). 


Is this little face cute or what?


And after I got baby chick warm and snugly (and out of the hands of 4 year olds) it got so relaxed that it took a little nap.


Prepare yourself for one of the cutest things you have ever seen.


Let's see another, you can never get enough of a sleeping baby chick.


Soon, mama hen and brothers and sisters came back, and Paw-Paw was able to put baby chick back with its family.
