[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5320329, member: 2805"] Most don't realize this... but the rain is not as much a problem for the poults as it is for the hen setting. Hen gets soaking wet setting, and she smells a LOT. Combine her getting wet with scent molecules lingering at ground level making it easier for predators to detect, and you lose not only the poilts still in the egg, but the momma as well to yoties and bobcats. Ever smelled a chicken when it's wet... you'll understand [/QUOTE]
