We just hatched our first chicks about a week ago and I have separated them with mama in the coop. The problem is they are silkies and I have larger chickens who are going in the pen I have them in and picking on the mama and her babies. If I take the babies away will the mama rejoin the flock? Or do I need to find a way to separate them all? I have a small brooder box but mama will not comfortably fit with the babies… I was thinking about just taking the chicks in and letting her rejoin the flock… thoughts??
