Tending to my chickens
This thread was not the idea of mine, so I won't take credit for it. Recently I had a hen go broody (I hope I don't jinx myself and cause her to not sit anymore). I wanted to feel how many eggs she was sitting on, so I gently stuck my hand beneath her. There was 1 egg, and a can of Blu-Kote! I moved the can to another nesting box, go in later that evening, and she has moved to that nesting box to sit on that can of Blu-Kote!

So what funny stories with broodies sitting on something other than eggs does anyone have?
 
Cluck you surely can take credit for running this thread. I don't have any broodies but, I love hearing about their antics. I am subscribing right now.
 
Me too...subscribing!

@cluckcluckgirl , good luck on that Blu-Kote hatch, lol.

Thanks! Yes, well the can comes from good stock, so I'm expecting it do well.

I pay good money for a can of Blu-Kote, so you should let her try to get some little cans for you!

Ooh, good idea! My main worry is if the can is fertile or not.
 
Please share the picture! And of course once those travel size bottles of Blu-Kote hatch, you'll have to get a photo of them too!
