We managed to pull the wet chuck through by keeping near the Aga and the egg hatched in hours. Both are now three weeks old but we have tried to reintegrate with the mother and her two other chicks and also with another trio but they ignore them for a bit and then charge and attack then so we have to retrieve them! Any ideas?

Many thanks
