Hi everyone! I just had a hen that started hatching her first clutch of eggs yesterday, by this morning all 12 were hatched and dried. I moved her to a safer location and she is taking care of her chicks well. How long will she stay sitting on the chicks before she decides to get up and start walking them around? I got her from a friend last year who let her set on a clutch of eggs unprotected, and on day 19 something ate all of her eggs, and I just wanted her to finally have her babies!
