We will have a momma hen and babies coming in later this week. They will be a gift from a neighbor, we anticipate they will hatch tomorrow and we will get them when they are three days old. How can we make sure these chicks grow up to be well socialized and used to being handled? They will be living with with their momma in the coop, we don't have any other chickens yet; just starting We read about how to socialize chicks in a brooder; how do you socialize chicks when they are in the coop with the hen? Will the hen be comfortable with us handling her babies?
Thanks SO much!
