I have an interesting conundrum. I bought Cornish X and guinea fowl chicks. They arrived on Wednesday and I gave some to two broody hens that I had. Unfortunately one hen didn't like the babies and hurt three. I had to put them down. But the other momma has really taken to the batch. The problem is, I have them altogether in the same coop. There are 35 babies. She is doing her best to let as many as possible underneath her and I still have a lamp out there for the rest. Is this going to be an okay arrangement? I'm hoping that even though she can't sit on all of them, that she will still take them out of the brooder coop and show them the ropes in the yard in a couple of weeks.
