One Chick left

Sadly we have only 1 chick left from the 11 hatched.  I found another one lying on its' side.  We put it in a box as it was still alive at that stage.  later I decided to move the hen and her 2 chicks back in to the main Chook House.  I put the sick chick under another hen and found it still there the next morning.  It had died overnight.  There was no sign of the black chick and later on my husband found it dead and partially eaten.  Rats have been getting in to the Chook enclosure.  The remaining chick is doing well and the hen is keeping it warm and safe for now.

Jake and Chloe really do love each other.  Here they are cuddled together on the sofa next to my husband. I guess that is why there are rats in the Chook House!  

The kittens are 10 months old now and growing fast.

Arnie is working on the rat population as he came in with a baby rat a few minutes ago.  Keep up the good work Arnie!
