How does a hen feed the chicks?

Chickens do not feed their young. Chicks are hatched knowing how to eat and drink. Newly hatched chicks do not need food or water for up to 72 hours after they emerge from the shell, they will dry out, fluff up and start to explore their surrounding under the watchful eye of the mother hen. After a day or two they will venture out of the nest and search for food without the mothers help.
