PIGEONS HATCH A CHICKEN

have two fantail pigeons. both
male birds, and noticed one day that
they built nest and then were sit
ting on it alternately, as if they were
going to hatch eggs, says a writer in
the Strand.
1t struck ne that it might be a good
idea to put an egg of my bantams
into the nest to compensate the
pigeons for the trouble they had tax
en- in building it. Apparently they ap-
preciated my doing so. as from that
time they never left the nest for about
three weeks. when to my great sur
prise l found a little chicken peeping
from the pigeons nest.
1t was touching to see how the
pigeons tried to feed the chicken by
oLening their beaks, as pigeons do,
and inviting the youngster to help
himself to the contents of their crops,
which, of course, it refused to do, be-
cause it is a chicken and not a
pigeon. The pigeons are very fond of
the little one and take it under their
wings to keep it warm whenever it
wants it. exactly as hen treats her
chickens.
