My serama hen decided to sit on seven eggs and today they began to hatch. When she started sitting temps here in southern New Mexico were upper 80's to low 90's and really nice overnight. The day time temps this week have been in the 40's and it has gotten down to freezing at night.
She is outside in a large dog crate inside the serama pen. She has straw, food and water in the crate and I took an old quilt and hung it over the crate with the bottom half of the metal door open for ventilation. Her water has not frozen.
Should I bring them in tonight? Or will she be able to keep them warm in the crate?
Thanks!
