I ordered 10 bantam hens from cackle that will be arriving friday or saturday, I also currently have a broody bantam. I’m wondering whether it would be wise to give them to my banty… My last shipment was in February and it wasnt a good experience. I lost half the chicks because they were very weak upon arrival, it took the survivors about 3 days to perk up completely.
So for this new shipment I’m anxious about whether I’ll be decreasing their odds if I had my broody foster them. Would love to hear your experiences and any advice on how to best go about this. I always have a brooder ready to go incase things go south.
