    How long will a hen "mother" her brood?

    I think it must depend on the broody hen herself. My d'Uccle has raised quite a few babies and cared for them closely until they were 5 or 6 months old. My Rosecomb mix has just raised a chick that's almost 3 months old, and she stopped paying close attention to her at about 8 weeks.
