I have two 7 month old silkie hens that sat together and hatched together... then didn’t feed, water or keep chicks warm ... so after losing 3 of the 5 chicks, I took the other two away. They’re 5 days old. They are drinking water and saveachick from my finger but not eating. I will persist in my efforts to get them to eat, but I’d appreciate suggestions.
The two bad mama hens are back in the nestbox together... my guess is they’re going to stay put, broody I mean... if I give them more eggs will they be better the next time? Thanks in advance!
