What the heck. My hen killed her chick
Well this is basically what the title says. She ate her chicks head off. Sorry for the gruesome details but I’m so upset. She hatched the egg. Had been sitting on it for a while and here it is head gone dead in front of her. So why did she do this? She was a first time mom. Could I have...- Maka

Two hens in one box--no eggs?!?
Hi. I have two hens that are just hanging out in the box together, but not laying any eggs. They exhibit broody behavior--not leaving box often, puffing up when I get near, etc. But when I check, there are no eggs to hatch. Are they just having an extended slumber party?- BecKen Acres
