I had a hen hatch 4 chicks a few days ago. Along with her I've got 5 other broody hens that are attempting to nest in a nest box that is slanted so the eggs roll out from under them. If I were to buy some chicks and put them under one of my broody hens would she take care of them and treat them as if she hatched them? Or could I put them in with the current mom and her four chicks?
