I have a hen that has been broody for about a week now. She is glued to that nest! I have a few questions and would love some advice from those with more experience.
1. The nest is up high. The chicks wouldn't be able to get out unharmed. How do I go about moving everyone? Wait until they start hatching?
2. Is it better to keep mom with the babies after hatching or put the chicks in a brooder?
3. Mareks? Yikes! Best way to/should I vaccinate?
Thanks for any help!!!
