Stuff to know about getting a hen to adopt chicks?

A hen will likely not adopt chicks unless she has chicks of the same age already. Hens will protect her nest from even the smallest chicks introduced so it is not a good idea to try to force a hen to "mother" newly hatched chicks. Keep the young chicks in the brooder box until they are older and can defend themselves. It is not the rooster they need to worry about, he will ignore them, the most damage will come from older hens establishing the pecking order of the flock. Chicks and mother can be introduced back into the flock by about 2 to 3 months. There will still be some squabbling, but the chicks are old enough and fast enough to escape the worst of the punishment. Momma hen will help them. There is not much worry from the rooster.
