    My crazy bantam has gone broody and sitting on an empty nest

    Over the last few days, she's stopped laying and has gone broody and won't move from her laying basket. It's absolutely empty but she doesn't seem to understand. She's been broody once before and I let her sit on a few eggs which hatched about 6 weeks ago. I'm convinced she's quite mad. Any...

    Wow you are right - especially the bottom photo and the one standing up looks exactly like my other girl. Do any of yours lay the blue/green eggs?

    We think he may be a welsummer but I don't know. When he's happy his red bits behind his ears go speckled white but most of the time they are red. I'm hoping that the babies are girls but I don't know how to tell, as when Whitey was hatched he had a spiky little yellow comb.

    Here is the mother of the chicks and the chicks themselves. I'm hoping that they are girls but I don't have a clue how to tell. Their eyes have lightened up a bit since this photo. The pink one is actually white - both chicks have khaki coloured legs; very strange colour.

    Wanting help with my bantams please

    Hi these are my bantams - with the photo with the girls on the chair, the one at the top of the chair lays blue eggs, while the other girl lays brown ones. I would dearly love to know what they are, and I will load a couple of photos of the two chicks I have from my rooster and the girl who...

    my bantam hen has become aggressive with me

    thanks for your suggestions. I thought about broodiness as her sister sat on two eggs so we've got two one month old chooks running around, so I let her sit on her egg when she lays for as long as she likes. After a couple of hours she gets off and squawks. They've all been pretty much hand...

    my bantam hen has become aggressive with me

    Hi, this is my first post. One of my bantam hens has suddenly become very aggressive with me - biting my hand and trying to bite my face. She's almost a year old and I raised her and her sister and brother from eggs so they are very used to me and I have not done anything out of the ordinary...
