Now, I am going to be glued to this thread, waiting to see what happens! We have a broody hen and the eggs should hatch between Friday and Monday next week (they are some of Amy's Marans). I have a feeling Lou Ann will wear the grass out between henhouse and the coop checking to see if anything has happened. The downside with a broody is they aren't exactly transparent!
We are wondering what she is going to do to the one hen that keeps insisting on getting in the box with her to lay an egg once those babies start hatching. Will be interesting to see if she tolerates her then or not.
If you only get one to hatch, are you going to go look for it a playmate?
