Hi all I'm new to byc though I have been reading all your great posts a while, just recently signed up.
So, I have 2 broody silkies hens, 1 non broody hen, and 2 roo's... All living in the same coop, with the broody girls in the nesting box.
Once they hatch, should I worry about the Roos? They are pretty friendly but I'm nervous as I'm not home a lot to look over them cause I work full time. Should I build a maternity ward for them (which will be a lot of work predator proofing it where I live in the mountains in CA)? Any advice since I'm not home much to help with the hatch and watch over them?
