I would never raise a single chick in a brooder, but this little munchkin was the sole hatcher and survivor out in the coop. I actually had two broodies sharing a nest (you can read about that here ). So this little punkin actually has two moms all to himself. They are both sitting there with him and he'll kind of run under one and then the other. They seem to be one nice little family.
I considered moving my inside chicks out with the moms, but I'm not so sure I want to do that. Would there be any harm in leaving the little guy alone out there? I mean he's not alone..he has adult chickens. Or does he really need peeps his own age?
Thanks!
