I have these 5 week old Black jersey giants and i want to no if any of my hens would want to care for them or is it possiable? My Wiondott kind of like them. My mom wants to keep them out side so she doesn't have to smell chicken and chicken poo. But my dad and i said "NO!" None of my hens are broody.
 
You'll need to take care of them. Non-broody hens make bad moms.

You would probably be giving you chicks a death sentence if you put them in with your older birds. They need to be very close to the same size when you introduce them.
 
Oh i see buy my nonbroody hen really like them. i put them in a small cage outside if its nice. every once in awhile i put my wiondotte in ther and she lighly pecks them but not allot.
