The Mother hen will protect her brood for about 2 months until the chicks are old enough and fast enough to run and hide from danger. The chicks follow her around a do what she does searching for food. The hen will remain off the roost until the chicks start to roost by themselves and the chicks often gather around her at nigh sleeping under her wings for warmth and shelter. When a chick gets into "trouble" the mother hen will run to it chasing away the danger, usually with the rooster close behind as it is his job also.
