When chicks hatch shall I !!!!!!!!

[Omran]

Put new chicks with mama hen in a new coop till they grow up? or shall I leave them with the rest and mama hen will take care of them?

Please give me your input, because when they hatch I might be on a trip and my wife will take care of them, but, the new coop part should be done like next few days before I take off.

Thank you all.

some people prefer to separate broodies into a special coop for safety and some people keep everything together.

for Angela's sake, maybe a separate area may make it easier for her to keep them easy to keep track of and less stress on the chickens as well.

other opinions?

Thank you Rhandi, I think that's what I am going to do tomorrow, so she has no trouble taking care of them.
Thanks again.
