Anyone know the answer to this question about broody's

[crzychicken]

Hello BYCers, Can I put 2 broody's together one with chicks that just hated 2days ago and the other just started to sit ??

Thank you

Anyone.... Please before I do this I don't want my broody to kill my new babies.

Not a good idea. Often times they'll fight over the eggs and scramble them. And when the chicks hatch they fight even more and unintentionally kill the babies. Give them seperate nests.

I wouldn't put them together , unless your feeling real lucky. You could be looking at a list of problems.

Agreed--don't do it.
