    ok, so i have a chicken, she has 9 fertile eggs, she has been sitting on them for about 2 weeks, then today, out of now where, she freaks out and runs away from the nest like something is over there(her nest is behind my barn), so i go and look, and everything is fine, there are no other chickens, no snakes, no animals, so is this normal behavior? and also, we put another chicken in a pen with a rooster so we can have more babies, is it ok to leave the rooster in with the babies?some people sed yes, others sed no. so im a little confused. PLZ HELP!!!thanx in advance!!!

    do NOT put the rooster with the babies, their is a fine chance he will kill them, or not let the mother care for them.

    Keep the babies on their own until they are about the same size as a normal chicken and if you want to put them in with the chicken and rooster then not befor or the rooster might kill them all
