Beaten Baby Chick by Momma Hen

[Amazing_chicks27]

You had mentioned you didn't know how to differentiate her, so I assumed she must look like a few of the other hens? Banding her would let you I.D. her at a glance, so if she starts to try to sit on another batch of eggs, you could break her broodiness.

Oh okay, now I get, thank you. This will definitely help me identify her.

Thank you for the explanation
