broody hen, 7 eggs. hatch date today.
1 egg hatched early chick was all fluffed up by yesterday lunch. 2nd egg hatched in the night.
mum has not left the nest yet as she is waiting on the other eggs, but these two little chicks have had no food or water? how long will the last without?
tried putting a small feeder and drinker just by the door but they wont leave mums side.
any ideas?
