    Well she seems to be doing great, she is happy with the hen and the hen is happy with her. She is eating, drinking and keeping up with the others 😊 I've decided to call her Elsa on account of her being frozen cold when I found her (I guess Olaf if she turns out to be a he 😅) That's her at the...

    Looking for advice to give this chick a chance :)

    Thanks for the reply 😊 it could well be it's just not right but thought also possible I've made a mistake and ended up with one slightly behind.

    Hi! New here. Have a broody who hatched out her eggs 2 days ago they are all doing great 😊 she left the nest with them and with it the last unhatched egg. I found it stone cold after she hadnt returned to it so removed it. I had marked her eggs to avoid a staggered hatch so opened it at the...
