    Moving a setting hen?

    I have eggs in the incubator due to hatch in 3 days..and one of my hens went broody last weekend. So it will be about a week of her being broody, is that too soon to try to sneak some chicks under her? Do chickens know or care that they havent been setting long enough? Thanks for any feedback!

    Bantam Light Brahma

    I am very interested in bantam Light Brahma, but I cannot find any breeders, besides hatcheries. Any one out there with these?
