any and all tips welcome as I prepare to put 2 day old chicks under hen who has been solid broody for 2 weeks. I know ... night time, stealth mode, no light, no noise. I have heard to wipe chicks with damp sponge... and to watch mama to be sure she doesn’t kill babes. What about my human scent on babes, how to sneak them in if she is not sound asleep... I have been out a few times after dark, but she is not willing to let me candle her eggs, even well after dark, so I am concerned she won’t go sounds asleep. Thanks so much for your tips.
