she hatched two and left the nest with one in, so i put it in the incubator. meanwhile one of the warrens pulled the little baby chick out under the brooder wire and killed it. :barniepoor little thing.
anyway the chick in the incubator hatched, so in the darkness last night i put the baby chick under her and this morning the were out eating. :clap
the other chickens keep coming into the coop and stare at the babies, i know they would kill them if they had a chance, i have double wired the brooder so none of the hens can get near them. i am so worried about letting them all run free together, what age can i let them out.
