I have only had chickens for a year now, and my Barred Rock went broody for me. I set her with 11 eggs, all shades, as I have 11 girls and a barred roo. She squished the odd colored ones and kept only the 4 whites (leghorns) and 3 darkest eggs. I put them under her 5/1. They were all there 2 days ago but from what I read, you should let her do her thin, so I have tried to not bother her. She has moved the shavings to the side and most are just on the plywood. If it weren't for the colors being the same, I would think it was an accident. Maybe I should put a towel under her to keep them on something soft and then shavings over? Any suggestions.
****i put an old t-shirt under her with shavins over that while she had a snack of apple***
the eggs are much heavier than they used to be.
