Hey, I currently have 2 newly born chicks under a broody mummy hen and I now have a newly hatched chick in an incubator! :) I was wondering if anyone knows when the best time would be to introduce my incubated chick with the others!?
Thanks :)
 
Generally introducing the chicks in the evening when the hen is settled down works best. This allows a bonding period for the chicks and hen.
