I had a pair of homing racers, who was sitting on eggs, then 3 days ago the cock went missing from a loft fly, yesterday the hen left the eggs, so I put them both under a pair that laid eggs a day before these were laid. I have another pair nesting right now that laid 1 week before these eggs were laid. My question is, after the babies hatch, can I put 1 of them in the nest with the older babies to split up the parenting duties (caring for four would be hard on one set) , or would the fosters reject the new baby because of the week in age difference (which is a considerably big size difference also)?
Does anyone have experience with this?
