Solamente un pollito ... that is all that hatched under Maria's hen: just one chick. A couple mornings ago, we heard the hen get very upset. Apparently, her nest was robbed by local wildlife, which ate most of the eggs as they were pipping. It is a big downer, as I was anxious to see Tiny's first chicks, but it is a known risk when letting a broody hen pick where she'll nest and brood.
I think the sole chick is one of the Eileen's.
