    I'm raising chickens over 30 years now. The method you tried with the mama hen is the best way to do it. It work almost every single time, BUT... sometimes they can still reject them. In this 30+ years of raising chickens it happened to me only 4 times. You just had the misfortune to happen in your first attempt. Don't be discouraged and when you want to try this in other years, do it! It's very unlikely it won't work.

      I'm a long term chicken lady too, and 100% all you can do is try. Sometimes successfully & other times not so much.

      @@brandyjean7015 Yes, but it works mostly. I even started years ago to do this during the day. A few times they wanted to reject the chicks, but I covered them with a box, left them until the next morning and they adopted the chicks. I like to raise meat chickens, but as natural as possible and give them the best time, even if it's a short time. I have hens, that are used to take chicks after they sit for 2/3 days. The oldest one is 9 and she raised 8 batches of meat chicks by now. I'm sure she things she only has to sit a few days on eggs to hatch, after so many times her "hatched" in a few days 🤣

    I had chicks and did the same by putting them in a wired enclosure on the grass. To protect them from flying preditors, I clothes pinned a sheet across the top. This way it would free up up to work on house renovating projects. Oh, and I also put in water and chick scratch.

    So sorry for the chicks. I lost 22 chicks when a mink got into the pen overnight. That devastated me. It wasn't long after I gave up raising chickens, because it broke my heart. We sold our flock to the farm store.

    1:50 Did I hear you say that they are "colorful hens and there are not roosters with them"? You need at least one rooster to produce fertilized eggs. Hens have "sperm nest" areas in their oviduct that store semen for later use in fertilizing eggs. If a rooster is removed from the flock, hens can continue to produce fertile eggs for up to four weeks, depending on the breed. Time for a new 'alarm clock' 😉
