Power just went out. I have 4 ducklings and 1 chick all 4 days old and 1 in the incubator, pipped but nothing else what can I do ? I don't want to lose them now. How do I keep them warm ?

I have a first time broody hen. The chick just hatched. The hen peeked at it and left the coop. Now she goes in and pecks at the chicks. It's still wet by itself in the coop Do intervene and take the chick?? Do I leave it be. I'm worried the other hens will kill it. I have never see this happen

We have a barred Rock hen who was attacked by our dog who I am trying to re-introduce to the flock. She suffered a open fracture of her left wing and had a whole ripped in her skin close to her neck. This sight saved her life ( the sugar coating on her wound did amazing). She is able to move her...
