I have a mama hen who hatched and is raising 2 chicks that are almost 2 weeks old. She was sitting on one more that hatched this morning. Mama showed no interest in this little guy. I took him in the house and warmed him up. He's drying under the heat lamp and so far so good My question is IF he survives is there any chance I can reintroduce him to mama hen and the other 2 chicks? What are the chances she'll accept him back being smaller than the other 2 chicks?
Please be kind, I'm new to this and doing my best
