    Take it as a blessing! Don't get me wrong, I love a broody hen, but sometimes they are just too much 🤣

    I'm glad your lady is ok! She is probably in shock, some electrolytes in their water tomorrow should help quite a bit. I've seen an uptick in hawks lately, especially young ones.

    How long do you wait before intervening with a slow layer? (UPDATED)

    It varies from hen to hen. I have some that will tear you up the minute they have committed to set, and others seem to build up to it (the longer they sit the nastier they get) She may not be fully committed yet, so if you don't want her setting keep a close eye on her.

    New rooster

    I've learned that what works for one may not work for another. I'm always willing to try new things, and I've come up with a lot of the things I do by trying something and adjusting it to suit my flock and their personalities.

    New rooster

    My first roo was actually a trade; I got him and 2 pullets at 15 weeks old. The gentleman I got them from is a long-time member here, he told me to just put them in, and it would be fine, but after everything I had read on here, I put them in a separated area in site of my ladies. After about 3...

    New rooster

    IMO at his age it doesn't really matter, if you separate him for a week then let him out they will do the same thing, it's what hens do to young cockerels to teach them manners. Introducing a cockerel and Introducing a hen are two totally different things in my book.

    New rooster

    He is still a young cockerel. He may not even be ready to breed. Just let them do their thing, there's really nothing else you can do. They will work everything out themselves.

    A gal that has bought chicks from me several times lost her white marans to the heat, so she asked if I would hatch the 5 eggs that she had from her, I said yes. She had recently acquired a lovely roo and they had been together for a couple months. The next day Onyx went broody AGAIN, for the 50...
