I'm going to get some eggs and just see how it goes then, COME ON MOTHER NATURE! :D by the end of the week she will be on some eggs! Yeah my coop is plenty big enough it's 6 by 8 so I will section of an area for her tomorrow! How eggisting!!

I'm aware that I probably sound stupid fretting over our temperatures but do you think she will need a heat supliment or anything? And should I separate her before or after the chicks hatch (she is at the bottom of the hierarchy)? And how often should I get her off of her next to do her...
