Mixing chicks,incubator and hen
« on: May 15, 2009, 10:05 »
As a result of one broody changing her mind at the last moment I now have 12 eggs under a good broody hen and twelve more in an incubator. Both lots should hatch at the same time. If I get about 18 chicks can I combine both lots under the hen? Breed is Maran.
