The lady from whom I buy my free range chicken eggs has two hens sitting on their clutches which won't let her collect any eggs. One of the hens had a chick hatch out the other day, coincident with the lady's daughter buying two dozen chicks. The chicks were placed near the sitting hens in an attempt at a surreptitious insertion into their broods, but the hens woke up.
The hens immediately started gathering the chicks under their wings as if they were their own! I LOL'd.
