    Do your hens go broody?  Some breeds do not. [/quote) They haven't yet

    Breeding chickens

    Will my hens sit on them? I don't have an incubator.

    Breeding chickens

    Ole gray mare- this seems extreme. My neighbor have a nice healthy flock just over the fence. They talk to each other frequently but don't inter mingle. What would be the harm in just chucking a rooster over the fence?

    I want the hens to hatch their own eggs. I am going to borrow a rooster. Get them fertile and let nature do the rest. I figured I would need some way of telling which were fertile. And maybe a brooding box and a laying box. Will that work?

    I have been raising chickens for 1 year. I love it. I have 4 wyandotte hens. We have been enjoying the eggs, but I want chicks. I want the hens to hatch the eggs. I sell want to continue getting eggs to eat. How can I keep the separate?
