About a week ago 3 new chicks hatched and there was one more, but now i went downstairs and its hatching slowly but surely and there were ants in it but i have it upstairs watching it and blowing on it trying to get the ants out.. and they are pretty much all gone now. But before this mama hen wouldn't take any chicks that she didn't hatch soo I'm not sure what she'll think about this one.
