NEED IDEA'S! LITTLE WORRIED!

[Dan1991]

Hi guy's,
i have a Broody hen but she only had 1 chick that hatched so my friend said maybe we could buy some baby chicks to go with the only baby and the hen! so today i went to a bird centre and ask,he said yes she should be ok with the new babies! but she seems to be pecking them. so i got 2 light sussex babies and a leghorn she seems to be pecking the leghorn more is this because it is a different colour??? can anyone help x x

Mine only seem to take the babies the VERY first day of hatch, after that they seem to know which cries are different.

Ok, so now you have more little chickens

even if mama hen doesn't want them I bet you do.
