Default The Tweeses

So...my chickens Reese and Twix are expecting! I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but Reese has 12 eggs in the nest!

Reese and Twix are white Silkie chickens, very rare here. Twix is 2 1/2 and Reese is 2. They both have glittering blue ears, feet, and beaks. Reese has black eyes, and Twix has brown eyes, I'm expecting a mix of both eye colours.

Reese is being a great mother, and Twix is watching her, keeping her safe

I'll be updating each day with how the chicks should be developing, and, hopefully, pictures of cute babies in 21 days!

So, today the chicks are developing a lot! What will happen/is happening:

-First sign of resemblance to a chick embryo

-The beginnings of the alimentary tract, vertebral column, nervous system, head, and eye.



Here is Reese, my sweet girl! This was last summer, she looks the same though. Sorry for the weird angle, it's the only pic I have of her on my iPad. I'll get more later
