Does anyone know where I can find white silkie pullets in Nc, around the Charlotte or Waxhaw area?
You guys, I have to share this because my friends don't seem to understand how awesome this is. So one of my broodies hatched out 6 chicks on Thursday and then proceeded to abandon the rest of her eggs, literally kicking them out into her run. On Saturday morning, I managed to be able to reach around her and get them out (vicious mama, sheesh!) and placed them in a container, set them aside and meant to throw them away but didn't. Sunday mid morning, I go to check in with every one, and one of them hatched! By itself just sitting there! Unbelievable. I still am beside myself about it.
My "last" broody was thankfully hatching eggs at the same time so I slipped the little one under her.
And then discovered last night I had ANOTHER hen go broody. GAH!!! That makes my 6th one this year, two of which had to go two rounds because of bad clutch issues, so my 8th broody round. The musical chairs continue. UGH.
