I cannot find another picture of 12 chicks. Perhaps I was mistaken!
Here are 11 chicks though!
Just a brief update.
Fay's 9 eggs are still all in one piece. We expect them to start hatching on 15th May - next Friday.
It's a pity we haven't seen much (anything?) of Bill recently. I hope he hasn't done a bunk - or to be more charitable, been caught by a predator.
He'll probably turn up again when the chicks start hatching out!
Bella admires her chicks. I can only see 10 here, but they are very good at hiding.
