I've got 4 eggs due tomorrow under broodies and 12 in the bator due in a couple of weeks plus my 2 one week olds. I'm having a ton of fun!

I had thought I had found the perfect baby, a little black frizzle serama chick - exactly what I wanted. So I emailed and the lady who posted the ad wrote back saying she had sold ALL her seramas the previous week.

I have taken all my chicks away from my broodies.

Just make sure you leave them with mom long enough to get all dry and fluffy. I usually wait 24-48 hours and try to move a couple at a time. The babies do fuss some but seem to do better if they are not alone.
I have this crazy broody girl that has been sitting on staggered hatches for weeks. She has been a huge help, no worrying about the incubator! I adore this bird and her service as a broody is priceless...makes me love her even more! Here she is sharing her nest and her baby....

Brooder is ready to go and I can very easily take them at hatch time if it is better. Thanks for the heads up........it would kill me to hear them cry!


I have a hard time keeping my hands off my peeps and my grown chickens! I love handling them and soothing them. If I couldn't do that, a lot of the magic would be lost! I'm definitely a "hands on" person. Thanks
