    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    I guess i can't complain about her behavior because she is being a great mother. I had my doubts about her when I decided to let her hatch because she was so skittish. I bought her and 6 other hens at the same time and they are all very skittish. They were not handled the way I have always...

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    new hatch from my EE bantam. This was her very first clutch of eggs she has laid. I did not expect good numbers if any at all but she hatched 13 of 17. But this is the best picture i could get... She is the meanest hen i have ever had with chicks. She is like Jackie Chan with a round house kick...

    Old Fashioned Broody Hen Hatch A Long and Informational Thread

    My 2nd broody is two days into her hatched. I was very surprised when i checked her... She has one pure white chick. All of my white chickens i have ever raised started out yellow. But this chick is as white as snow. I thought maybe it was albino but it has brown eyes.

    That's terrible sorry for your loss. I know what its like. I lost 10 standard hens and 4 bantams earlier in the year. They just started going missing in the middle of the day and i finally saw the coyote that was the culprit! You are right predators are smarter than we think and scope out the...

    She had 11 eggs and 10 hatched. Unfortunately i lost 1 chick 2days after they hatched because it got seperated from the hen. So she has nine and they are doing great. My other hen has 12 eggs they should hatch in a couple of days. I let them sit on however many they choose to. So i will keep u...

    I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only person that has about 60 standard size chickens LOL. Now I don't feel like I'm a chicken hoarder. I tell my spouse that I'm a COLLECTOR not a HOARDER. And I have 23 bantys not counting new chicks. I collect 40-45 eggs a day from my standard chickens and I...

    Out of 11 eggs 10 hatched. But yesterday we had monsoon rains here in Louisiana and it got a little chilly. When I got home in the evening I had 2 babies that didn't get out of the nest with the hen and other chicks. They were both as cold as a stone and laid out. Unfortunately one perished but...

    Well... No action here yet :0( I'm wondering if they may hatch slower this time due to the fact she is sitting on so many eggs.

    Thank you.. Believe it or not she is sitting on 11 eggs. We will see how many I get. Last time she sat on 7 and all hatched. But all 7 were her own.. This time she is also sitting on some of my young hens eggs. I have another hen that looks exactly like her sitting on 12 eggs. Those will be do a...
