Hens go broody . They sit on any eggs they lay or find and then peck at you if you disturb them .
So after checking no eggs under one of the broody hens ( weve got 4 broody at the moment) I left her to it.
So it was a bit of a surprise to come across this .
As chicks go , this is a very small one - she clearly secreted a small egg under her .
So it is now in a run with food and water , and we shall see what it grows into
