    5 mo broody hen—too young to raise chicks?

    I had same thing happen to two of my hens and they both hatched about 50 percent of their eggs. If you don't mind chicks I would say give her eggs. Also don't let me change your mind if you already made it up, I am a chick lover, I will do anything for them.

    Put them in deeper type water, and if thet are only half submerged and the other half is above air they are dead. If they are almost but not quite all the way submerged they are most likely just hatching late.

    Was this a good deal?
