A bantam was among the hens I bought. Last week she had a bloody beak and comb, I guess from being put in her place. She took over one of the laying boxes and I allowed her to remain there to heal. However, it turns out that she is broody and wants to set. I have been removing the eggs against her will, but am wondering if I put a few eggs under her would she be able to raise them since they would hatch in February which is the coldest month in North Carolina. I do not have a brooder or a place where I can provide outside heat. Your advice is welcome.
