My EE, "Penguin" has taken up residence in my living room while she recovers from a hawk attack. She is perfectly fine now except she's totally blind. She's learned to find her food and water, and we intend to gradually reintroduce her to the flock when the weather is nicer. Meanwhile we just got a new batch of baby chicks today and I had the thought that maybe she could adopt them and brood them. Is there any way to try this out and see if it would work? I can't just put them in with her - they'd be wallowing in her poop, among other problems (I clean the cage twice a day but she makes copies amounts! Also if she attacked them I might not be able to rescue them in time.
Is there any way to do this?
