new baby chicks

[sus9441]

I have chickens that are going to hatch soon and I wonder whether I should keep the baby chicks with their mother or should I seperate them until a certain age?

THanks.

I was the same when our first chick was hatched. The advice I was given on here was to leave with mother just to watch incase mother hen doesn't like the motherhood then 2 take chicks away.
I have 2 say our hen has raised the chick the chick is now 9 and a half weeks old and mother hen is currently sat on 13 eggs which them chicks are about 2 hatch soon
