Hen laying new clutch, but still has eleven 3 day old chicks to take care of?

[JoeCole]

It's day three for this new mother hen of 11 little chicks, but today I found her on the nest laying another egg.

I hope she doesn't forget she needs to take care of those little 3 day old babies before she gets back on the

nest to hatch out more? Anyone ever have a chicken do this?

Please share your thoughts with me, thanks.

I've never heard of that happening before........maybe she'll forget about the eggs soon.

Light chick

I hope so, this is her very first clutch of babies, could be inexperience?
