If i have 2 broody hens, and 5 baby chicks ready for adoption, should i place all the chicks under ONE broody, or should i split the chicks up and give BOTH my hens some babies???
Thank you
 
It depends if both hens are good moms or not. Are either experienced? Some hens will take chic and some will peck at them.
This is my first time so i have no clue. The two broody hens were both adopted when they were older, so i dont know if theyve ever had babies around them before. I was told they were a year old.
