Our hen has 3 chicks right now, between 4 - 9 days old. She has filled her nest with hundreds of chalky white pellets, the size of peas. We are not sure where they have come from, or what they are for. Has anyone seen anything like this before?
I can post pictures if needed, but I'm not to0 keen to disturb her at this early stage.

Could the chalky pellets be something that the hen has torn apart, like cuttlebone?

We definitely need a photo or two to know what you are speaking of, unfortunately.
