Hen attacking chicks

[aart]

Ok, so I left her locked up for 3 days then let her back out. She did great. Paid no attention to the chicks, walked past them without any problems. Now today she's back at it. I saw her put her head under the little opening I made for the chicks and pulled one out to attack her. This chick wasn't even in the hens space,she was in the brooder. I've locked her back up but I really don't want to have to keep her locked up until these babies are full size. They're only 5and 6 weeks old.

Soup....or a new home.
