I'm not sure this is allowed here but I'm looking for a home for my crele orpington rooster. He hatched July 12th bloodlines from the fancy chick. I him in a trio that ended up being 2 roos and a hen and they don't want to share. Asking 15 for him
She is back on the nest, didn't check for eggs yet. Thinking about just getting her a few baby chicks.
But this morning I noticed he comb wasn't as bright red as normal. I added the electrolytes to their water, but is that normal?

Her is a video she already had eggs under her when I went out next time I will make sure she is gonna stay before letting her have the good eggs. Here is a video of her.
My baby is broody!!!:
Thank you so much for the reply, I guess she is just thinking about it. Should I take the eggs away or leave them? I left her keep the same nest before just moved that nest in a pen in the coop and she didn't like the moving part. But it wasn't at night and I didn't use a cloth. Thank you so...
This is my first flock and first broody. I have been excited for one if my hens to go broody. Yesterday he sat on her 2 eggs for about 3 hours so I took the eggs. Today she was back at it so I gave her 2 more eggs plus 2 more of our own. She sat on them till this evening when I decided to move...

Your welcome :) I'm no expert but have done a lot of research and asked a lot of questions. I have 2 buff orpington hens and 4 silkies (1 of which is a rooster) they are about 6 months. I wish I had a few more buffs but I'm planning to let them hatch some eggs when they go Broody. Excited for...
Waiting for my first Broody :)
I have 5 hens (2 BO and 3 silkies?) 1 silkie roo. What are the chance they will all go Broody at the same time? I have so many questions about letting them hatch their eggs and I'm still waiting for them to lay lol
