You made that chicken’s dream come true. She was so confident about sitting on such big amount of eggs. And she was happy to accept all hatched chicks!!
I find it hilarious that he didn't force this on the chicken or anything, he just found her with these aspirations and decided to make her dream come true XD
The star of this video was definitely the mom! I bet she was *so* tired after having the first batch with her for a few days. Then came the second set!
Lol she looks so confused and speechless 😂 I was a lil worried when she pecked at him cuz it could've been toward the chicks. I'm not very educated when it comes to birds, especially what they do with their beaks to their children. I was afraid she was gonna peck their eyes out 😅
@@uniwolfgamer1094 broody hens who are protecting eggs or new chicks will peck at anything that comes close enough to take their babies. I have a pet hen who goes broody often, even though none of the eggs are fertilized because she won’t accept our rooster. She won’t peck at me, but that’s very rare for a broody hen to not peck. She’s just very tame and loves me. However, she does scream at me the same way the hen in this video screams 😂 In fact, my hen is in my bedroom right now because I’m trying to make her snap out of it. They will sit on an empty nest until they starve if you let them. I’m considering getting some fertilized eggs for her to hatch ❤ She is insanely maternal. I just don’t want her to quit eating to try to hatch invisible eggs ☹️
The look on the hen's face as you started bringing more chicks to her was adorable! So many little chicks - what a handful! Wonderful that they have a great chance at life now. I never knew they like the blossom petals - that's so sweet. Happy Days little chicken family! 💜💜
I didn't know that they like petals either. That whole scene with the amazing mama and all the fluffy little babies eating flower petals was just so sweet.
You are an absolute honour to watch and keeping the UA-cam community alive. Me and my crew are filming in Amsterdam next year and would love to meet up as part of our donation vlogs. If this is not possible we would love to just donate anyway, it’s not a life changing amount but a fair amount. Keep the good work, incredible human.
One of my chickens tried to hatch 43 eggs at once, she managed to convince another hen to help her out, and when 37 of the eggs hatched, the second hen left, and 37 chicks were constantly crowded around the mama hen. It was like some sort of secret service. Nature it beautiful.
@@bluebird4614 I know. It's not just hens either. 11 years ago, one of my roosters brooded 7 eggs that the mother left after having 4, and he hatched them all and even raised them.
Oh, what an amazing mum she is!! She made herself as big and fluffy as she could. What a sweetheart! 🐔🐤🐥 Those babies are so absolutely adorable and perfect. 😍😍😍
The sound of new chicks making little noises is so cute and precious. I just love the way they hop around and make a little noise and then they follow mom around pecking and scratching exactly like she does. When night comes they Gather under her wings to keep warm while they sleep. Some of the happiest times in my childhood were watching my bantam rooster and bantam hen. They were so tiny and adorable, and the rooster had a beautiful cock-A doodle Doo. When she laid her eggs they were *tiny*. And when those chicks hatched they were so tiny I was afraid to touch them. That was the most beautiful animal family I ever experienced personally. The bantam hen was an excellent mother.
I’ve had chickens all my life until last year when I had to move. I think the most unique thing I have ever seen was when one of my chickens I swore I thought we’re gone entirely took off and came back with 20 chicks. While raising them she got tired of them she didn’t really want them and I was getting worries but another one of my heads adopted all fo them. She didn’t lay the eggs or hatch them but she adopted 20 3 month old chicks and raised them as they’re own. She loved them so much and it was such a site too see
I was afraid that the mother would not accept the new chicks, but she is already an excellent mother. Thank you for sharing this peace video. Bless you
Awe I loved how she took in all those chicks! When she hatched the first 3 & was sitting atop the barrel it was like she was saying "hey dad look what I did!!" Awesome as always watching your special gift!
I wonder if she realized that he was returning the babies that he took away in eggs. The more I learn about animals the more surprised I am by how intelligent they really are. I wonder if this mama hen was able to understand that.
@@anyascelticcreations They are as smart as primates, on par with roughly a 5 year old human child, so she may well have. Great momma hen though. Holy wow, 43 babies....
I recently put a batch of hatchery chicks under my broody bantam. I went into the coop after sunset, removed the fake eggs and began setting chicks under her. She was so thrilled. Mama hens are very accepting of small chicks.
I love how unique each chick is. My favourite is the nearly all black chick. I don't see that often in my region 💚 Thank you for your dedication! -- And mega props to that mama hen! That's no easy job.
That is one determined hen. I love your videos. They make me smile and bring tears to my eyes at the same time. Sounds goofy but it's true. Makes me realize there are good things going on in the world. Thank you.
The mama chicken loves you so much she was basically saying "come see what I did" and let you pick the baby up no trouble. I love how the animals know you're so wonderful!
So remarkable that the mom was willing to accept all those chicks. I didn't know that was possible. Nature is so amazing. Thanks so much for the uplifting video.
Hi I’m a sweet seven/eight (birthday today)year old and wanted to thank you for looking after your birds so well. I am looking forward to meeting a little chick very soon.❤ 3:15
Mom hen is fantastic ! Her initial dream came true. She saw the like of all 43 chicks. She could hardly believe it, it was happening. What started with 3 kept coming on and on and a bunch ! What an amazing mom ! 🤗💕 Thank you for making her dream come true. ❤
thank you so much sir for inspiring animal lovers like myself and saving the lives of so many animals. i have a pair of budgies who've recently had three chicks. but though the mother was very protective of her chicks, she refused to feed the youngest one. it had grown really weak. I took it away and started handfeeding it, and now its alive, well and kicking. my respects to you
This is amazing! In my experience, if a chick hatches even one day after the others the hen will kill it-or at best ignore it. Ducks, too. I’ve hand-raised my share of chicks and ducklings. Once, I took a duckling to church with me because I discovered it when I “just happened to” look in in the nest on my way out. It hatched later, and mama wasn’t interested in him at all. I wrapped him in a hanky and held him to keep warm. All went well until the last 10 minutes of the service, when Dinky suddenly decided to announce his presence. Fortunately, I was sitting in the back, but I had to leave quickly because ducklings are shockingly loud!
My Orpington hen gave up sitting on her eggs 24 hrs after the first two hatched. The remaining eggs were still good, so I put them in the incubator. Over the next 3 days, I put the new hatchees with her once dry. She happily took them, much to my relief!
I'm amazed at your mama hen, I can't believe she took chicks days and then weeks later! I had a broody this summer that I gave 6 little chicks to. She happily accepted them. A week later I tried to give her 4 new chicks I had gotten and she happily took them at night. But in the morning I found all the new chicks kicked out of the nest and I had to become their broody mama.
I appreciate you and your videos so much! You have truly given me so much knowledge to help me continue my passion of rescuing animals! I am currently fostering 4 kittens (3 feral and one who was abandoned). I have a lot of animals and you inspire me and so many others everyday. I cannot thank you enough
@@AChickCalledAlbert I have loved animals ever since I was born and it is lovely to have found a kindred spirit ❤ I am OVERJOYED to know that you exist and care. So your welcome, and thank you and your gracious heart
@@AChickCalledAlbert Also, a bit off topic, but I think you would enjoy Scott Christian. He has a very similar feel to you. He does art though. I hope you have a splendid, animal filled day
God Bless this wonderful human being. Thank you for sharing another heartwarming video. A nurturing mother always accepts another little one to care for.
The channel owner has an excellent relationship with his community, saving eggs and birds as well as other animals when called. I'm in London/uk. We should establish a similar group. The times I hear that a friends neighbour in a part of London found a sparrow chick which had obviously fallen from its nest though was alive. Not being able to find the nest, the neighbour tried her best to hand rear the chick to no avail. I kept on thinking if only I was notified I would have collected the chick and done the right thing.
OMG poor hen! All went well 'tho, thanks to you. After over 36 hours of trying I helped another chick into the world - I wouldn't have tried without watching how you helped hatch Albert 💛Now i have one chick... (broody mum changed her mind)
she seemed pretty eager to have as many chicks as possible, sitting on all those eggs like that! im glad that she accepted them all!!!! super cute and adorable
You made that broody Mama Hen's dream with so many babies! Mama Hen said I will hatch them all and the human said I can help. Then the Mama Hen said you can help but I will raise them all! So cute.
Had a chicken that would dig really deep holes, wide enough to sit and cover the hole and during summer the ground was getting enough heat to keep the entire nest warm. She would steal all of the other chickens eggs which is funny watching a chicken pushing eggs under their wings and walking long distances with them because she refused to nest in the pen where she would be safe. She'd move the eggs whenever the nest was found if she hadn't already started sitting on the nest. She only liked sitting on gigantic clutches of 30+ eggs. She was very good at hiding her nests and sometimes didn't find her until she came out with babies. If her nest was in the shed or barn we'd leave her because that was safter then some of the locations she had nests. She was my best mother and named Mother Hen as a result and would take babies that my other chickens rejected.
Thank you sooo much for thIs; the very best part of my adolescence was chicks and ducklings. And loved those fluffy, bossy, pecky hens. This was pure joy.
I was surprised that the young chicks, hatched so many days apart, didn't get pick on brutally by the older chicks. I'm glad you documented this. It was fun to watch.
Talk about spreading oneself thin... all jokes aside, this is so wonderful. 2nd edit: just a few months ago I had two hens go broody at the same time, for the same eggs, in the same nest. I messed that up. My fault, tried to split it up between them. It backfired, and I take the blame. But, those two hens managed to co-hatch and co-raise this one little chick, AND successfully introduce her into the flock. She is in young love with Louie, the second-rooster-in-charge, and she's thriving.
Super mom! Wow! We had a large hen who would not lay on her own eggs, but immediately and insistently adopted every chick she could find. Different breeds, ages, etc. She was a sweetheart. We had a few who hoarded eggs in a crevice somewhere, but they were less than successful. Seemed it was usually our bantam hens who got broody and tried to hatch out dozens of normal sized eggs....unsuccessfully. Great job with this batch, to her, and to you!
I had a bantam sitting on regular eggs! You could tell they weren't gonna thrive, so I left her w/ half and put half in my incubator. She had only 3 of her own eggs and they hatched 2 days after the regular eggs in the incubator did! That's 5 days late! I didn't think they'd be normal, but all were fine! I gave them back to her as they pipped. She hatched babies for 4 days this past Halloween, 15 in all, 12 were as big as her in no time! Bantams definitely have a rep for being good broody moms.
I had a Button Quail who was incubating 22 eggs. She used to roll the eggs continuously back under her, meaning that others would be pushed away. With this process the eggs were more or less obtaining a fairly balanced incubation. It was great to observe the process.
Once all my eggs from my hens went missing, and I was getting at most two a day when the average is about eight. About a week later I find the smallest hen I have sitting on sixteen eggs! Sadly it was fall and the chicks probably would not have survived so I couldn't let her hatch them, but it was crazy to see her that dedicated.
You made that chicken’s dream come true. She was so confident about sitting on such big amount of eggs. And she was happy to accept all hatched chicks!!
43 likes 43 eggs
Please you tell What breeds do they have?
This comment made my heart go 💓
I find it hilarious that he didn't force this on the chicken or anything, he just found her with these aspirations and decided to make her dream come true XD
She’s like, “ There’s MORE?!” 😂😂 What a fantastic mom, and those chicks are adorable. 🥰🥰🥰
That's exactly what I was thinking she was saying every time he added more....
LOL
Very nice vedio
I thought the same when she started pecking at him. 😂
She looks like she found this big pile of eggs one day randomly and was like "well I can't just leave these guys here, guess im a mother now"
Lol, right?!
The star of this video was definitely the mom! I bet she was *so* tired after having the first batch with her for a few days. Then came the second set!

Super mom! Wow! We had a large hen who would not lay on her own eggs, but immediately and insistently adopted every chick she could find. Different breeds, ages, etc. She was a sweetheart. We had a few who hoarded eggs in a crevice somewhere, but they were less than successful. Seemed it was usually our bantam hens who got broody and tried to hatch out dozens of normal sized eggs....unsuccessfully. Great job with this batch, to her, and to you!
I had a bantam sitting on regular eggs! You could tell they weren't gonna thrive, so I left her w/ half and put half in my incubator. She had only 3 of her own eggs and they hatched 2 days after the regular eggs in the incubator did! That's 5 days late! I didn't think they'd be normal, but all were fine! I gave them back to her as they pipped. She hatched babies for 4 days this past Halloween, 15 in all, 12 were as big as her in no time! Bantams definitely have a rep for being good broody moms.
Such joy! The Mom's like, "Are you kidding me?" lol!
I had a Button Quail who was incubating 22 eggs. She used to roll the eggs continuously back under her, meaning that others would be pushed away. With this process the eggs were more or less obtaining a fairly balanced incubation. It was great to observe the process.
Once all my eggs from my hens went missing, and I was getting at most two a day when the average is about eight. About a week later I find the smallest hen I have sitting on sixteen eggs! Sadly it was fall and the chicks probably would not have survived so I couldn't let her hatch them, but it was crazy to see her that dedicated.
I had successful hatches on Halloween and again 4 days before Thanksgiving! It was 17 degrees here the other day, everyone is fine!
