I've had three birds go broody and "gather" eggs that one. I once had a BO (while not having a Turken rooster, but two Turken hens) hatch out 4 half Turken chicks and 1 BO cross chick.that looks ridiculous! i have a bantam who does that, maybe they want to lay their eggs in a nest box with eggs already in it
Some of my Ameraucanas do the same thing. I seem to find the majority of eggs in one box & often catch 2 at a time in one box. Silly girls
Some of my Favorelles seem to enjoy cuddling with any hen or roo they find.it's really funny when i find my bantam in the same nest box as one of my buff orpingtons! she seems like she is trying to hide under the orpington's feathers!
I've got several hens of the "peck first, ask questions later" persuasion. I keep my hands OUT of the nest box when it's occupied.That's hilarious to catch of pic of the craziness!!!Mine do this as well.
I always feel sorry for the bottom lady.
If I happen to be in the coop at the time, I'll usually lift the last girl and place her in her own nest, just to end the silliness...lol.
May I ask, what is the top cinnamon colored hen's breed? @Arztwolf
Ohhhh...I reread your post. She's a Buff Orpington?
that is a very handsome rooster!
