The tiny Bantam Leghorn hen was sitting for 6 weeks on her own egg but with no success. So I decided to offer her an egg of another hen - somewhat larger than hers. 19 days later the chick was born. So cute. I named it 'Spotty' because of the black dots on its back. The hen is very protective. She is blowing up to the double size as soon as someone is approaching her.
