Hi my broody hen Dorothy has happily hatch out one egg today .I brought 4 ferlies eggs for her to hatch ,I didn’t mark them and my other chicken gave her 4 more eggs to sit on ,we couldn’t work out which were which so we have 7 eggs that she is sitting on with her one chick .How long before we can expected the other chicks if they are coming ?if they don’t come soon will she still feed this chick ?
Dose the mother feed the chick or dose she show it the food ?
I have brought chick crumps is that all they need ?
I have a chicken water tray which I have lowered so they can reach .
In a few day should the chicks be coming off the nest ?
And last of all when can I hold them my chicken is very friendly and was hand raised she a bantam hatching silky eggs .Thank you Wendy
