Questions for breeders

[Fbueiz]

After waiting about 8 month one of my chickens started laying eggs, after about two weeks another chicken lay on eggs and 21 days later I had chicks. The chicken keep laying eggs while the chicks are growing beautiful. My question is. Can I leave the chicks by themselves so I can put the same chicken to see if my other eggs hatch or what should I do? I don't see the other chicken with any motivation of incubating the new eggs, she lays them all over.

You could put them in the incubator if you have one mama hen will be madder then a wet hen if you take her chicks

If the hen is no longer broody, she won't "set" on the eggs (she won't hatch them). Baby chicks should be kept separate from larger chickens until they are closer in size. You can keep the mother hen with them until she rejects them.
