    Thankyou for all of these wonderful suggestions everyone! The temperature was 36 degrees celcius! I am so pleased that my Lacender Sussex (the mum) has made a full recovery.

    Exercise for baby chicks?

    Inside the brooder can we I allow my 4 day old chicks to run around. They are already running around but not sure if I should let them! Can they burn to much energy and stop growing?

    9/12 eggs hatched. Will some still hatch?

    The water and food has been inside the nesting box. The chicks and mother have had water and food since they have hatched. do you think the mother will still stir on the eggs if we move her. She isn’t that friendly and will put up a fuss whilst moving.
