You can leave the chicks with the mother but it will only last 4 to 8 weeks. Usually, it's the mother hen who wants to wean them and get back to her flock. In warm weather, you don't really need a heat lamp, but get a secure pen and chick starter until they're 20 weeks old.
Care of the Baby Chicks. Unlike when you order chicks from a hatchery, baby chicks who are hatched naturally under a broody hen don't need a lot of care. The mother hen provides the heat, so you don't need a heat lamp, but you will need the other basic chick supplies. She will also show the chicks how to eat and drink.hey can walk around under her wings and snuggle up together without much of a problem at all. Just make sure, like with any chicks, that they have fresh feed and water at all times. You may want to move them to a brooder area with mama once they've all hatched and are a couple of days old, to give them some room.
