The couple of times I've tried it with chicks didn't work. I think they weren't close enough to the 21 days. They would have killed the chicks if I had left them. People say to go in at night and try putting them under. When I tried that, the hen freaked out like a mouse had gone under her. Maybe if you go out with ducklings in a small box, and she can hear them peeping and see how she reacts. I think it is very individual. I know someone with a hen who will take chicks without being broody first.

Red had a hen that did, didn't he? I was watching the birds in their new run today... A bunch of tiny starlings were in there eating with them and they ignored them.. didn't care, but when it came to chicks... they wanted to eat them.

Papa, do you ever look to see the posts that people send you on your profile page... the little love notes? Just curious cause you usually do the application mode and you had lots of messages on it when I looked.
