So, most of my girls are ‘ on the brink’ laying wise and I let them free-range. I had a hunch so I kept them in their coop until noon today. Wouldn’t you know it, I got an extra egg ☺️. What are the odds that the timing was THAT perfect? I think tomorrow they may stay in even later, LOL!
we brought home some new pullets earlier this week and now our little game hen has gone broody. 1) Is that the reason, and 2) how do we get her to stop? TIA!

Meet the new girls, hopefully . I was told they’re copper marans pullets, roughly 3 months old. What says the collective wisdom on this site?
Also a picture of my first copper marans Bea.
Getting so anxious!! 3 of 7 are laying. My Marans and Old English Game hens are a year old and laying, my True Green Whiting started at 4-1/2 months, when will the rest of my girls start? I’ve got a Light Brahma, 3 Wyandotte’s all 5 months old. Agh, I can’t stand the anticipation!!!!!
Meet Lucy ... I was told she might be a True Whiting? I don’t really care, I think she’s gorgeous! I think she’s just started laying, everyone else should give me brown eggs but we found this the other day. Thoughts. THX!
