For the first time, I let a broody hen go ahead and hatch out her clutch. They are now 5 days old and I have them in a small pen away from the rest of the flock (but with mama of course). I figure they will be ok in there for about a week and then I will move them with mama to a larger tractor to give them more room.
The rest of the flock is free-range in the backyard...when can I let mama take her babies and free-range?
