Crowing
I offered my broody a handful of feed and some grit every day as she sat on the nest. I put a small waterer up there in the nesting box for her.
Now there are chicks sticking their adorable little heads out. How do they typically get fed? Should I add a second handful of chick feed and grit? If they get a piece of the adult-sized grit will that be a problem? Are they going to be fouling the water in the reservoir? Should I add some marbles to the reservoir now for their sake?
How long are they all likely to stay up there in the nesting box? I noticed my broody had collected a new egg as recently as a few days ago. Is she going to continue to sit on it until the last egg hatches?
