Three is a crowd update with hatching photos

[heyeddah]

If anyone is still interested...
The three girl pals are still at it with 6 hatched and 15 left to share. The chicks are from one to five days old. One silkie chick did not make it out of the shell last night.
Someone suggested I should one momma hen back to the flock???? She seems to have taken over the care of half the chicks. I am not putting the chicks back in the main coop.
What do you all think?

If they are getting along I'd leave things as they are. This is such a sweet story.

my chickens kind of did this too! I am on my first hatch ever (we got our first chickens from Meyer Hatchery) and when my broody who is hatching the eggs goes outside to got potty and eat in the morning, my amerucana sits on the eggs for her. And when my broody gets
back, my amerucana gives the nest back!

Tehy just help each other out!
