I also provided her with boiled egg and the shell crushed to eat. There is oyster shell mixed into the feed I give her...

    Sick hen

    I have a 6-7month old hen. About 2 weeks ago she laid her first egg. About 2 days later she laid another egg and had a shell less egg coming out of her vent. I removed what I could of this and ever since then she hasn't been the same. She had runny poop that resembled yolk but she continued with...

    Roosters more affected by cold temps?

    My roosters have never seem more sensitive to the cold. The coldest temperature I've had is 15°f so far and they were all out in my yard free range. If it's windy and cold they do huddle more and tend to stay in a group or out of the yard. I do not use a heat lamp or anything. How big is your...

    They are here!♥️

    Not yet , but I think they will bust out soon. They are moving and chirping inside the eggs. I'm hoping tomorrow is the day. Mama took the 2 chicks she has already out for about 30 min then she came back and sat on the eggs that are waiting to hatch.

    You got that right! My broodys mama was a silkie and she was amazing and now her daughter is my current broody I use and shes the best ever. She's well mannered with me, protective with others, she waits for all eggs to hatch , she's never been violent towards her chicks or abandon them. My Alfa...

    I'm not sure about this , never seen it in any of my eggs. Me personally I would put it in egglaying category since it's likely an issue with laying or something of that nature.

    That is why she is my best broody. She always waits. It is cold here anyways and she will spend most of her time in her coop with them and they stay under her. She's never abandoned her eggs and I've never had a problem with the already hatched chicks waiting. They usually eat and scratch around...

    I don't have an incubator. I appreciate the information. She's my best broody this isn't her first go around she's always waited until all hatch. I set up food and water for her to show them and for herself. This is about the 5th or 6th time I've had her as a broody. It's always been a success.
