Chick!

A few weeks ago we went to a show and bought 2 beautiful Orpingtons (a Buff and a Lavender Splash).  They were in a pen with a cockerel at the show and on the way home one of them laid an egg.  As we had a broody Silkie at home we decided to put the egg under her to see what happened, but did not really expect anything.  Today I have gone to check on her and there is the most beautiful yellow tiny chick!!!  So excited!!  Will get some pictures in the next day or two as didn't want to disturb her to much!
