Hi Jenn, where in the world do you live and how cold is it likely to be when they hatch?
I let a broody hen sit on eggs much later into the fall than I thought wise. Once they hatched I was very glad she was there to mother them. I'd've been babying them with the heat lamp and worried that they were cold. She just took them right outside in the 40 degree weather and they tucked under her when they got cold.
