Hen's hatchlings (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brood

'hen's hatchlings' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for brood that I've seen before include "Ponder mournfully" , "Worry over" , "Clutch" , "Think resentfully about family of children?" , "Think anxiously for some time" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
