    Ok i know this is an incubation thread but one more question about my broody please... ;) if the chicks have hatched will they stay under her or come out and stay next to her? Also could I hear them chirping if they are under her or would they be quiet since they are snuggly warm under their momma?

    Thanks for responding! The chick still has its butt in the shell and is still breathing. Not peeping and is still curled up how it was in the egg. I personally can't see it surviving but who knows. I wrapped it in a semi moist paper towel and its still in the incubator.
