My broody hatched 6 of the 8 - 4 black 1 blue and 1 splash. Sadly the feeder fell and crushed 5 of them so I am left with a blue Silkied chick. I am very happy to at least have 1.
I just tucked 8 eggs under my broody- I got them from 'Colorful Coop'. Her pen has splits so in 30ish days I will know if I am an owner of silkied's! Fingers crossed for a good hatch.
This chicken is crazy exciting to me- great that it can't fly out of the yard or into the garden! I would really like to purchase 6 eggs. I only hatch under broodies (my dh doesn't notice increases in numbers if they happen 'naturally') so if one of mine goes broody are any of you able to ship...
