Surprise Silkies

I thought the Silkie hens were just hiding out from the heat lately,
but- surprise!-
they're broody. 




This is what Silkies are notorious for and is the reason I wanted them. I hate tending an incubator and baby chicks! I've never seen 3 hens share one nest before but evidently they are tag-teaming. It will be interesting to see how they manage the chicks after the hatch!
