I'm thinking probably not, but I thought I would ask anyways. I have a momma hen with two babies, hatched may 26. I have another broody due to hatch June 24. Tomorrow I am getting 10 BRs. Is it possible for me to put these barred rocks in with the broodies, for them to raise as theire own, or do I need to set up a brooder. If I can put in with the broodies, which one do I put them in with? the one already hatched or the one setting on eggs?
Also, how long do I keep momma in with her babies?
