hi!! I'm courtney, mum to 3 hens. 2 Rhode Island's, Brandy & Bazel, and a Plymouth Rock, Fifi.
When I started my chicken raising 3 months ago, I had 4 chickens but unfortunately we lost 3, and Fifi is the one original left.
Grew up owning chooks so thought it was about time I got my own...
one of my hens has become protective of the eggs when I go to collect them. I don't think she is broody as she isn't sitting in the nest boxes but just tries to peck at me and bawks up at the egg when it's in my hands. I'm also not sure if it's her egg or my other girls egg. Does any one know...
