I kept a couple red meat birds from last years batch, because they were doing fine, and I was not in a procession mood. They are likely coming up on a year old. One has gone BROODY, and is mean and protective of the 6 eggs she is on. I thought that hybreeds had this breed out of them. She certainly is large enough to sit on lots of eggs. Curious if this is a oddity, of common.
 
I had them on the girls only side, but will transfer the non broody to the Big Langshon roo side. The combination wiould make a big bird. I assume the two big birds should 'work' O.K.
