Thank you!

Once a broody hatched 1 chick, will she wait for the other eggs to hatch, or just leave them, as in, abandon them?

She shouldnt leave them, she should hatch the others aswell.

Phew!

Seeing as this is her first time going broody, I'm worried she might trample a chick. Should I take the chicks out, as they hatch, and give them back after a day or two?

Hmm, i wouldnt think she would, i would just leave the chick.

also would depend on the size to, but i wouldnt really worry
