Pipping!!!! Help!!

[Heatherella]

My broody hen has been sitting on eggs and I can hear little peeps. The egg is starting to hatch. What should I do once it hatches? The box is large enough for food and water. My concern is about the other hens. Will they hurt the babies? Is it okay to leave them all together? I can't decide what to do! Help!!

I would block your brooty and her going to be newly hatched babies from the other hen's right now. Everything else sounds great Good luck keep us posted
