Sooo much pooping

[prof]

Clown (broody partridge orp) hatched 3 chicks. Well, she actually hatched more but trod on them

She was still sitting on 2 eggs and was not looking after her 3 chicks well (infact she was squashing and treading on them)so i removed the 2 eggs from her and candled them.

One was a dud.

One seemed to have something in, but as it was 2 days after her first hatch i decided to pop it under Lunar (my broody blue orp) who managed to hatch it

Now i have Clown in the with her 3, and Lunar in a dog crate in the garage with her 1. My other 7 hens are in a .

Can i put the 2 mums together?

Should i take the chick from Lunar and give it to Clown?

I think that may be mean on Lunar as she seems so happy and pleased with herself hatching an egg in a matter of hours!

Also. Clown ate 4 dud eggs and has managed to give herself lime green runs! Is this normal? is there anything i should give her to settle her tummy?

Many thanks

Hi i would leave the 2 mums seperate with their babies my broodies are very protective of their babies and will try and attack each other through the wire fence also not sure on the upset tummy probs is nothing to do with eating the duff eggs just keep an eye on her leanne
