Now a days people are smarter than you think, with the increase in technology, you cant take anyone for granite.e responsible for what you did!

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.
Lastly, when you buy day-old chicks, you will have to feed, care and house them for at least 8 months or so, before they start to lay.

A pullet is a female that is at least 20 weeks of age and less than 1 year old.astly, when you buy day-old chicks, you will have to feed, care and house them for at least 8 months or so, before they start to lay.
