Bdubs Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I have a broody hen that never leaves the nesting box. So yesterday I got her three 1 week old chicks and put them under her. All seems good , however, how do I proceed now? The chicks are too small to jump down into the run. They can stay with her in the nesting box but how do I give them food and water? Right nowI have put food and water in the roost area. I can take it away before everyone comes in for the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
