I have a broody hen and 4 out of 6 eggs hatched. I have seen an advert for buff Orpington chicks and was wondering if she would except a couple of them ? Very new to this chicken lark!!

Never tried this myself Ayrt1010 but have heard it is problematic. They can be rejected and killed even at a few days old. Best chance is when they are hatching, before she has taken the others outside for the first time. Needs to be done at night.
