Come under my wing little kittens


I've been watching some broody hens behaviour videos on you tube & found this.

Looks about a week - 10 days to me walking about like that, just at eye opening stage.

Maybe mum cat is there and they were just letting henny penny borrow them for the vid?

Re: Come under my wing little kittens


Isn't it amazing that so many species will do so much to look after their young & even mother other creatures, it almost brings a tear to your eye when you stop and think about it. My hen was loving her dummy eggs & rolling them underneath her, I've never seen it before & it's totally amazing how nature tells them what their natural instincts should be.

Bless every mother and surrogate mother on this earth.

Alwayys think animals have got it spot on, the way they look after young....

I do agree, Pat, we've gotten to far from our roots sometimes..

We've had two recent cases of abandoned newborns here recently, and one heartbreaking one of a dead newborn in a dumpster .....
