Are you planning on moving them out of their shavings condo to a better location? I'm curious what other people do when they hatch out in less than perfect places.

I moved her when I was sure nothing else would hatch. She was fine with it. I did have a hen once that went crazy trying to get back to the nest and almost stomped her chicks. This one seems a little smarter, though. She's all about taking care of the babies, no matter where she is.
So the reason I was curious is because I let our EE stay in her nesting box til one of the babies hatched this morning! I had to go out and make up a spot for her to finish the rest of her eggs and take care of her baby and one I set in there, rejected from it's mother. So she sits, confined with food and water and protected from the other hens who are outside enjoying the melting snow.
