There is a picture I posted several years ago of four hens on one nest: 2 turkeys and 2 legbars. The legbars were under turkey booty just to fit in. It was a broken giant tote, so they were all reasonably comfortable, but it was still hilarious that hens will pile up so. Also, none of the eggs were broken.
I am getting broken chicken eggs daily.

Back when I still had Swedish Flower Hens, one chicken shared a nest with a turkey hen for several weeks before she finally chased the turkey off of the nest. Prior to that the turkey was pretty much brooding the chicken along with the eggs.

I ended up with bloody arms daily when I would reach in to swipe the chicken eggs from under the turkey.
