Wild storm chicks

She was found a few nights ago during a terrible storm. She had been missing a month so I assumed she had become a meal. The LGD's were barking at her as she was down near the sheep shelter. I don't know why she was there but I barely heard "cheep" noises through the thunder and wind from a patch of high weeds outside the fence. I only found these two, newly hatched, cold, and wet. Somehow they had hatched during the storm then something drove the mother away. Possibly a fox or racoon but it probably saved them because that's the only reason I noticed them while checking on the animals in the storm. They are too small to put with the bigger chicks in the shop so they are staying in the other bedroom for a couple days.
