How old is your BA? I am under the impression that for the large breeds that go broody, like a BA or BO or Maran that they may wait until their 2nd year to go broody for the first time. Other breeds like game or silkies will go broody their first year. Any thoughts?
She is just under a year old. She hatched last May. I've had several first year broodys from my large girls, a dark Cornish, one Jersey Giant, and one Wyandotte. These are hatchery birds, too!
