Thanks so much for the help... It may be difficult for me to get fertile eggs, but I'll see what I can do.
I live in Norway, and it is probably around 25 degrees F at night time now. Would that be too cold to have the broody hen away from a heat lamp and bedding materials? I'm guessing it's...
Oh... well don't I feel smart.
I thought that if it had a folded over comb that it was a boy, but I guess I was wrong. It's the only one of my chickens that looks like that...
Well if it is a hen, then that means I have no rooster. I'm just interested in egg production, What should I do...
Ok, so I'm very new to this... I have raised 5 chickens (4 hens, and 1 rooster), they started laying eggs in January.
I have two nests for them, and have been getting on average 6 eggs/day. In the last week or so it seems my rooster has decided he is a hen and will not do ANYTHING but sit on...
