Thanks for responding! I can improvise a brooder and I do have a warming plate. I’m really crossing my fingers she takes them on. If she does, do I need to separate mom and babies from the others for a while?
She’s been broody a couple of weeks. The babies are maybe two days old - shipment came today to the farm store where I purchased them. I put them in with her this afternoon so that I could monitor.
Hey all, I have a broody girl and decided to try slipping a couple of babies under her. She sat there with them underneath her for 20 minutes without acknowledging. I closed off our little raised coop, and they’ve been poking around, eating, and drinking. Broody has remained in her nesting box...
