Update 2— Help
Well I went out yesterday and my broody #2 had a newly hatched chick under her and 4 eggs. I went to work thinking all would be fine and came home to chick gone along with shell she hatched from. Looked all over for baby chick and nothing. Broody #1 still has her 4 baby chicks and the rest of the flock leaves them alone! Any ideas what happened????? So upset to think she may have ate the chick and shell... headed out to coop this morning and I’m terrified to think what I may find. Should I pull chicks from her if there are any? I need to go to work again today.....
