Because we bought a mama hen and 7 babies, and she was still setting on them when they were 2 months old..they are now almost 4 months old, and she still hasn't resumed laying...Is it possible that none of the chicks were hers and she is just a setting hen, but not necessarily a laying hen? She looks to be pretty young to me. She has nice smooth feet.
