We're not exactly sure how, but one of Newbie Buff Orpingtons keeps getting up on top of the feeder in the Brooder. We're hoping this means she is just curious about what's happening beyond her current four walls, not that she is a he that likes to stand above the Ladies.

Ok, so we just hatched some chicks for the first time. 3 of the 10 so far have thrived, and are 3 days old.

Two different mamas. Do I separate them? When do I take the babies from the mama altogether and just place them in a brooder box? I am flying blind here because this is the first time I have even had brooding hens who will sit on eggs!
I have never had this experience, but I will post it to my facebook page in the hopes that someone out there has :-)
