I had a broody banty hatch out two eggs last Monday. This Sunday/Monday I have seven more chicks due to hatch. Is it possible to get her to raise the newbies too? I think the babies would like to have a momma.
 
it may be too late to convince her they are hers. I would try it out on one or two of the newbies & see if she is up for it. If not you don't lose them all - if she does take them slip in the rest!
