Norma Jean is a very different mom compared to Silkie Sue. Each time that we go down near their area in the basement she plants herself in front of the chicks and puffs herself up as large as she can. She's definitely protective and will attempt to attack our hands in order to keep us away from her babies.
Luckily, I was still able to get her and the babies out of their pen and into a storage tub so I could clean everything up. She could easily have hopped right out of the tub, but she wasn't about to leave her babies.
She was much happier back in the clean pen with fresh food and water.
So where the chickies.
