9 days and a wake up until chicks due to hatch under my broody GLW

[write2caroline]

9 days and a wake up for hatch day. I am a little nervous - She was off the nest yesterday and had herself a bit of a stretch but got right back on those eggs. This is our first try and we shall see. - She is very dedicated but I was horrified when I went for a looksee at her and found her off the nest. She has not gotten off for any length of time in fact we piped her in water and I bring her food daily and a bit of a pet here and there.

First, congrats.

Second, how far away is food and water? If you're too worried of her chicks, you can put some food and water closer to her so she won't wander too far and for too long.
