[FONT='lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif]Went out last night to check on our Golden Comet sexlink hen. She is sitting on 5 eggs. I took out 3 and was going for the 4th when I heard a peep and saw little legs! It startled me as we were not expecting them to arrive until Saturday..guess my timing is a bit off.[/FONT]
[FONT='lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif]How long should we wait for the other 4 eggs and will the hen care for the hatched chick while she is waiting for the others to hatch?
How much room does a new mom and chicks need? How old should the chicks be before we introduce them to the old flock? Someone said you can do it in the night and it would be easier, is this true?[/FONT]
