We are proud to announce that one of our broody hens, thanks to another undercover-chicken-raising neighbor, hatched two fluffy chicks.  One downy little guy is a ball of yellow fluff, whilst the other has various brown stripes down his back (reminds me of our Dorking chicks). 

The unlikely mama is our Scruffy hen, so named because she has spent the better part of this year nearly featherless on her back and upper wings (she does appear to be getting some feathers - just in time for winter).  The other hens, when they care to notice, appear to wonder what all the racket is.
