Found this very informing and makes sense! Never thought of the predator thing, but several times thought of how scary it must be to see this big person and hand swooping in to the babies. My girls are doing nicely and I always talk to them and try to always ease in to pick them up, but I like the idea of placing the brooder up higher. I also loved that garden window idea! How fun for them!
I’ve thought about going a different route with my next batch of babies and raising them in a separate area from the grownups..
