So in July my lovely ISA brown Crookbeak went broody, i gave her eggs, 25 days later, nothing.
I bought 4, 4 day old chicks, she loved them, has cared for them since introduction diligently and protected them from EVERYTHING. Been a better mom than my bantam cochins.
Problem is, now theyre 3.5...
My broody ISA brown has until now been a diligent momma until today, eggs are scheduled for the 13th. I found her in the wrong nest and the eggs had already gotten cold, do i have any hope for any of them to hatch??? Eggs are ISA browns and Bantam Cochins. I havent candled anything, my priority...
The impossible happened, my 1.5 yr old ISA Brown has gone broody, all bald belly, pissed off and has consistently stayed in her nest for 3 days, defending it vigorously from the others.
Has anyone had luck with letting your ISAs brood? How are they as mothers once the chicks are here? Shes not...
Hello!
I am a young chicken farmer situated in Denmark, i have just under 20 chickens in a variety of breeds, although mostly ISA brown crosses and bantam cochins.
I will mostly be asking about injuries or chick knowledge and i look forward to learning!
