I know that with mine my broody stopped producing right aways. Not a single egg from her. Is your hen taking up a nesting box? I know mine was so others began laying on the floor under the pine shavings and once outside too!
I just hatched a few of our chicks(more on the way right now) and since they're all different colours I've decided to name them.. the problem: finding names for them!
So far the chicks all have different characteristics:
1. Spunky
2. Lazy
3. Shy
4. is...(i dont know right now, she's still...
Will separating the roosters from the hens cause them to go after a hen? Just wondering since we have 4 roos and 7 hens that have balding heads and backs.
