Chirping
and by one more I mean maybe a few
So, I've done my reading and research, but I think I just need one more "you're good to go!" I'm just so nervous- I want to give my broody hen some chicks and will probably be able to go pick them up in the morning.
Should I wait until tomorrow night to put them under her then? That would mean they are just hanging out until the evening time... (of coourse with a heat lamp and all)
Right now she is just in the regular nest box, which is a ways off the ground. Should I move her to her secluded area before I put the chicks with her or after?
Also, is it too cold to do this right now? I'm in TX and it's not too terrible but it has been raining a bit...
Sorry about all the questions! I'm just so excited about the possibility of getting more chicks and need a second opinion (or third, fourth, etc....)
