broody hen + will she accept 2 week old foster chicks

[SuziQ]

I have a 1st time broody hen but we got rid of our mean rooster.
We hatched out some fertile eggs a couple of weeks ago and have 9 chicks.

Does anybody have any idea if I could slip these chicks under the hen and have
her accept the foster babies? I think we would all be happier if she would
accept them, but don't know if it's possible or how to go about it.

Any suggestions would sure help.
Thanks,

I can get my game hen to accept anything that peeps. But, your problem may be that at 2 weeks, the chicks might not accept her as mommy.

If she already has chicks, I wouldn't count on it. My broody is ferocious towards anything that isn't her own chick, and will openly attack chicks of any age that aren't hers.
