Thanks oldhenlikesdogs, I was very nervous myself! Luckily, we slipped them under her last night, without protest from her. Then I nervously monitored them all day. And to my great relief, tonight the little ones went under mom an hour before the bigger chicks. I am hoping this will be a success!
Hello! We are less than a year into the wonder that is chicken rearing :) and were lucky enough to have a broody successfully hatch 4 chicks. I was really hoping more would hatch but they didn't. So today my husband surprised me with 5 day old babies!!
Based on my reading, I'm planning on...
