How do I get a "setting Hen" to accept baby chicks from a farm store?
I have a hen that has been setting on eggs that were expected to be fertile for about 25 days, but none have hatched. Can I get some baby chicks at a farm store and get her to adopt them? Any tips? Thanks, Jim- Rasher610

Name that Predator
I live in San Francisco, CA and have about 20 various hens that range over 3 large back yards. Yesterday I found a dead hen in the yard. It had the feathers torn off its neck and part of its body, but was not eaten. Today, when I was letting my hens out, I noticed a pullet born last summer...- Rasher610
