    Is it normal? - please help -

    Hi all- first time hatching... And the first chick was born this morning.. 3 more to go *fingers crossed* but the momma keeps pecking at the baby's feet and legs - is this normal? I don't want her to hurt or kill her - she is letting it sit under her wing, but will peck at it ... Thoughts...

    I think Randy you could make a brooder box, heat lamp, food, water if the others aren't hatching - dip her beak gently into the water - watch that she figures out how to drink/eat- -- but I think they are ok to go without food and water until day 3 (someone correct me if I'm wrong!)
