DJ Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 hi can anyone tell me how old yb,s are before they are left on there own overnight in the nest? debs
Guest IB Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 My hens always sit the youngster overnight right up to weaning. The only time the hen didn't sit overnight was during very cold weather. I didn't pair up earlier than Feby after that.
DJ Posted January 13, 2011 Author Report Posted January 13, 2011 thanks for the reply IB my youngsters were left on there own last night in their bowl but when i checked them 10 mins b4 lights out they were warm as toast and nestled in straw so i left them and first thing this morning they were fine when i checked them again they are being fed ok so im probably worrying over nothing thanks again debs
