Yes she does all those and all the eggs she sitting on are fresh all from the same day and im pretty sure her eggs are fertile i may leave her she how she does if nothing happens thats fine have to learn these things on trial and error
Shes sitting on sevral eggs normally shes runs off when i get close now shes pecking me hand to death when i try to go for the eggs could she be going broody would be my first one if so
I have had them all for 6 months there all at least 1yo+ and some greater than 2 i know of and non has went broody so far..i live in South central ky so weather has been weird...some days 70 then right back down to 30s
I have 21 hens 2 roosters 5 RIR 5 BA mix of barred rock and domi 1 brahma 2 bantams out of all those what would be my chances of getting some broody hens to hatch some chicks for me?
Have a 10x12 coop with 37 in my flock they free range all day only sleep and lay their eggs in the coop is my coop big enough for this amount of birds?
They have been on it layer pellets for about 3 weeks so it would be alright to go ahead and change to an All Flock feed? I also offer oyster shells free choice
I have a mixed flock of around 37 hens some are not laying yet but prolly within a month or so.. Some that are laying..some molting..some with some age I think 2 1/2 years or older..question is should I be feeding layer pellets or should I be feeding something that helps all of them young old...
