I have a couple of questions about chickens that I would rather ask here than at BYC. I'm more comfortable with you guys since these are such basic questions.
1. I have a very broody dominique. She waits until someone else lays eggs and then she sets on them. A friend of mine has some banty eggs. Would it be OK for her to hatch them since they are so small?
2. If I do let her set on the eggs, do I have to seperate her from the rest of the flock? Their nest boxes are milk crates. I don't have anywhere else to put her. The chicks will go back at 1-2 days old.
