urgent i have 3 bantams sitting in one car tyre and i have just noticed one baby chick but i am unsure of which one owns it what should i do? i have 6 hens in total all bantams in a quite small shed they all seem to be going broody should i move some , all have been together this whole time , and seen reluctant to lay in other nest boxes provided. i'm afraid they might kill /smother the chick . i have a brood box and when i tried to move her when she first became broody but she didn't want to lay in there and was quick to fly out ( roof was not closed at the time as i had only put her in ), this is the first time any of my bantams have clocked out any eggs and so i am new to the whole process all/ any advice would be great
