Subject: Re: [CHICKENS-101] Putting chicks under hens
Laura, I do the same thing, at night, but hang around for an hour or two to make sure the chicks stay under mom. Bring a chair, headlight flashlight, and a good book. Usually works well and I have never put out egg shells, just took the eggs my hen was sitting on from her so she'd get up with the chicks.
