So I have a Black Copper Maran the I put 5 chicks under 2 weeks ago. I lost 2 so now she has 3 - 2 week old polish. I just hatched 6 Sumatras last night. Do you think if I slipped the newly hatched chicks under her at night - she would accept them? I ask as last year I had one clutch of chicks and another hen raised them with the mama. Let me know if you've had any experience with this as I wouldn't want to risk the new hatch. Thanks
