Super Mama is very protective of Faith. It's been a bit tricky to get photos!
But you can see she's got lots of feathers now. They're really more black than brown -- it's the effect of the flash. Her beak is also mostly black. It appears that Eartha Chick might be her bio-mom!
Eartha has the softest black feathers ever! She's a Black Australorp. Don't they look similar?
I am really hoping that since the appearance genetics seem to be coming from the mother (the only roosters right now are white) perhaps her sex will, too!
Have Faith!

I've never been around hens with chicks. It's so cool to see them all nestled in the feathers.
