I gave my persistently broody silkie 2 eggs 21-days ago, like clockwork 2 chicks were born early this a.m. but she pecked them to death during the day today while I was at work ***
Aww. That's a shame. Will you let her try it again? I just did the same with one of my hens. I let her keep one egg. I had a fear of that happening. I'm sure that was heartbreaking for you.
