cool, she has 7 chicks.. they were in a box that they could nt get out of so we let her and the babes out to wander while we cleaned the box, she took off with them in the chicken run

Hope she does a good job with them

they are all from different hens so it is a really cute brood

Well done!

I'm glad it turned out alright.
My broody hatched out 4 chicks by yesterday, haven't checked yet today. Waiting for a bit more warmth before I go bother them. It's freezing here first thing in the morning. She had 7 eggs, so I hope there's more...
Enjoy your mom and babies
