We've had a lot of extra wildlife around the homes We've had a lot of extra wildlife around the homestead recently. 
At least 7 baby skunks and 1 raccoon. 
The baby skunks play by spraying each other to get better at aiming. 🫤
The dog got sprayed, and so did a teenager (who was really put out when I didn't let him sit on the couch 😬🤪).
Things are always exciting-- and sometimes smelly-- around here. 🦨

One of my hens has gone broody, and I'm thinking a One of my hens has gone broody, and I'm thinking about sneaking chicks under her at night. 
Have you had luck with this method?
I assume I need to have food and water nearby for the chicks-- is this enough room for that? 
The container our hen picked has about a 6 inch side, so u don't think chicks could easily get out of it-- is that okay? 
I'll have the brooder ready in case she rejects them. 
Please give me all your advice so I can do this right!
