Chapter 545 Hatching chicks in the squeaky nest
It was already bright outside, and Han Cheng, who woke up from his sleep, rubbed his head and smiled bitterly.
I was tossed by a dream last night, I didn't sleep well all night, and I was stunned after I got up.
If you really give birth to two such little cubs, then what's the point?
Lying there stunned for a while, Han Cheng sniffled and began to get up, and after washing, he continued to go to the chicken pen to see the chickens.
When I passed, I found that the rooster that was hatching the eggs had come out of the nest, and was leading a flock of fluffy balls, looking for something to eat in the chicken pen.
This group of newborn chicks, with nascent curiosity, ran forward and backward with the rooster, and let out a childish cry in their mouths.
One or two greedy chicks are focused on finding something to eat on the ground.
It was easy to find a cut blade of grass and put it in his mouth, and before he could eat it, the other one saw the food and ran to cut off his beard.
opened his mouth to peck at the other end of the blade of grass, and the two began a tug-of-war like eating rice noodles across the bridge.
The two little ones fought back and forth for a while, and each ate a part of the grab.
Tilting his head, he wiped his mouth left and right on the ground, and when he looked up, he found that Father Chicken had gone away with the rest of the chicks.
The two satisfied little ones immediately panicked, and could not care about anything else, their mouths cried anxiously, their furry wings flapped, and they opened their slender calves and ran quickly to the old rooster.
Ran to the old rooster's side, which can be regarded as quiet, and began to run around leisurely again.
The scene of the two little chicks screaming and running towards the big, Han Cheng's heart was beating when he saw it, and last night's dream left a shadow on him.
Fourteen?
I lay here and watched for a while, and finally counted the little pompoms running around.
Shouldn't there be fifteen? Why is one missing?
Han Cheng hurried to see the chicken coop.
The coop is full of bloody eggshells left behind by chicks that have broken out of their shells.
I opened a corner of the net, poked in with a stick and played with it twice, and sure enough, I found an intact egg inside.
Han Cheng hurriedly found the net pocket and reached in to net the egg out.
If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear the faint chirping of chicks and the sound of eggshell pecking from time to time.
Seeing this, Han Cheng hurriedly covered the egg in his hand, then turned around and ran towards the room.
Back in the house, he put the egg in the armpit of Bai Xuemei, who had become sleepy because she was pregnant, to keep her warm.
This is a relatively unlucky chick, and its unfortunate thing is that it develops much later than other chicks.
The chicken also has a certain amount of time to hatch the eggs, most of the chicks are hatched, and after pulling back and forth for too long, it will get up and lead the hatched chicks away.
Because if you don't leave, the chicks that hatched earlier will be hungry and can't bear it.
At the same time, it is also a relatively lucky guy, and the luck is that when Han Cheng was in the past, the old rooster who was the mother did not come out of the nest for too long.
If it is delayed for a while, in such a season, it is difficult to escape the fate of freezing to death.
Bai Xuemei was woken up by Han Cheng's movements, and just as she was about to turn over, she was held by Han Cheng, who was quick with his hands.
If you turn it over, you can eat hairy eggs.
After figuring out what Brother Cheng put in his armpit, Bai Xuemei, who was still a little confused, immediately became energetic, and then became a little confused.
Aren't chicks hatched by chickens? When will it be possible for a person to hatch chicks?
Bai Xuemei asked Han Cheng with a wink.
Not only can people hatch chicks, make a large vat with hot water, put a sieve on it, put eggs in the sieve, cover it with a quilt, as long as the temperature is well controlled, it can also produce chickens.
The same is true for the kang.
After all, when the eggs are laid out by the hen, they have been successfully fertilized, and all they need is the right temperature.
Bai Xuemei, who got the exact answer from Han Cheng, was not sleepy at all, such a novel thing could attract her attention the most.
She lay there, clamping the egg in her armpit, listening to the faint cries of the chicks from time to time, feeling the movement of the chicks pecking at the eggshells, and her face was so happy and novel that she didn't even eat breakfast.
Seeing Bai Xuemei so happy, Han Cheng sat here and spoke to her for a while, and then went out again.
He was going to get some better food and feed the newborn chicks.
The hard eggshell was finally overwhelmed by the chick's continuous efforts, and at about ten o'clock in the morning, there was a small break in one part of the eggshell.
The gap gradually widens, revealing the pointed mouth of the little chick.
Bai Xuemei opened her big eyes and looked at it without blinking, very serious and happy.
Towards noon, the eggshell finally broke, and a fluffy chick emerged from inside.
The chick is gray as a whole, with a bit of orange on its mouth and paws, fluffy, like a ball, and is extremely cute.
The newborn chick, looking left and right, and after a few calls, it was logical to lie down against Bai Xuemei, very quiet and well-behaved.
This chick who has never seen other chicks of the same kind obviously regards Bai Xuemei at first sight as its mother.
Han Cheng came over and smiled when he saw this little chicken, after all, a grown chicken has a lot more meat than a hairy egg.
He pinched some millet and put it in Bai Xuemei's palm, and Bai Xuemei spread her palms halfway and put them in front of the chicken.
The fluffy chick looked at it for a while, then lowered its head and began to peck at the rice with its small orange beak.
The chick was just born, and the strength was not great, and the small mouth pecked at the palm of the hand and itched, and the happy Bai Xuemei giggled.
This chick also completely regarded this place as its home, and after eating some millet and drinking a few sips of water, he ran forward and backward on the kang, picking here and pecking twice.
The bright sunlight shines through the gaps in the window lattice, slanting into the room, and falls on the kang, leaving a small pillar of light.
Inside the pillar of light, there are fine dust constantly fluttering, which looks very interesting.
Such a thing quickly attracted the attention of this newborn chick.
It came to the bottom of the pillar of light, tilted its head to look at it for a while, and then began to kick the ground with its two slender legs, jumping up with all its might, flapping its little wings, and stretching its neck to peck at the pillar of light.
When he landed, he fell to the ground unsteadily, like a hairball.
Clumsy and stupid, Han Chengdu, who was watching it, couldn't help laughing.
After a while, Han Cheng was ready to take the chick away and send it to the rooster who had just become a mother chicken, and let it lead it.
Such a plan was finally completely dispelled when facing Bai Xuemei's reluctant and pitiful eyes.
