Any hens that never go broody?

[Ginmary]

We got our chicks a year ago April. One BO, one Ameraucana, one silkie, and two Seramas. Every one of them has been broody at least 2 or 3 times. Except the Ameraucana. Millie has never been broody. She is also the most consistent egg layer. Is this normal for one hen to never go broody?

Just like us chickens are a product of their DNA, and some birds do not have the genetic predisposition to go broody. It's all about the genes.

Most of the breeds you have are prone to going broody.

Production breeds like leghorn, red and black sex link and Rhode Island Reds have been bred to lay eggs and not go broody.

I have been curious about this myself. I have a RIR, an Easter Egger and some kind of mixed breed. Never showed any signs of broodiness in three years. My Wyandotte about 18months old is definitely in her broody mood.
