I have 14 hens and one rooster and I'm not really looking for a bigger flock, however one of my hens is broody. It's my first experience with a broody hen. My two little girls asked if we could give her chicks. I don't mind a few more, but I don't want a dozen more. We marked two eggs for her and are removing any others that she sits on at the end of each day. Is two enough? Also, I'm not sure exactly when we left them so I'm not sure when 21 days will be up. I know it was within the last week. How important is it that I know? Thank you for any help! I'm only going on two years of being a chicken owner
