Hen and chicks

[pattyberg]

I have a hen with 3 chicks she hatched, one week old, I am getting more chicks, via the mail, can I put those chicks with her and will she take care of them as well, she is a great mother,

sorry but no because your hen can tell what chicks are hers even if the forien chicks are the same breed and she would probaly kill them also
