My wyandotte hen hatched out some chicks but she stayed broody so we took the chicks in and raised them we are about to reintroduce the chicks to the flock because they are getting close to full grown do you think the mom will recognize her chicks and care for them?
 
Nope, sorry. She'll be just as ornery to them as the rest of the flock. Do a search on integration if you haven't added new chooks to your flock before so you can minimize the stress level and chance of injury.
