Hello! So basically my hen Dior hatched 2 babies and unfortunately one was killed (not sure of what) but now she only has one but today my dad said that a mother hen that lives on our ranch was killed and a couple of her babies were as well. 2 survived and we grabbed them because they are too young to survive by themselves and wanted to see if we could introduce them to my hen. At first it was good and she seemed to be ok with them but then got aggressive and started to peck them hard so I took them away. Is there anyway It could work? I want them to grow up together so they are not alone. The slightly bigget one is Diors chick, and the other ones are the ones I found.

It just depends on the hen. If she doesn't want them all, you could take them all away and raise them yourself. That way they won't be lonely, but you also won't have the mamma hen to take care of them.
