One of my hen got broody but I didn’t have enough fresh eggs to let her sit on. I gave her 3 eggs. Ending up I found another 5 few days later. So, when the first 3 hatched I had to remove them from the nest. If not, the mother would leave the nest and the remaining eggs will die.
The next day another chick hatched. I removed it and added to this box. I will keep doing that until the last egg hatched, then I will sneak these chicks back into the brood and let their mother take care of them.
