Hi everyone !
I was just reading a post and saw were someone said "do we need to make "another" "year of the broodies"?
Well I thought why not.So I decided to make it.
I don't know how the previous one was worded but what i'm going to say is :
If you have a broody hen let us know all about it.Post pics,keep us updated on everything.
Here's some info on my broody hens this year:
Ive had about 10 broodys so far this year give or take a few.
I can't remember who all has been broody but here is who is broody now:
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nugget: Mutt Hen.She's not sitting on anything.As of today she's been broody since the middle of February.
Liza:White Silkie Hen.She's not sitting on anything right now either.I did hatch a White Cochin Chick out in the incubator and gave it to her but the bigger hens bullied her off the nest and the chick died.Never again will I do that.She's been broody since around the beginning of February
Cinder:Black Silkie Hen.She's not sitting on anything.She's one of my oldest hens and has raised many broods over the years.She just went broody a week or so ago.
Louise:Lemon Blue Standard Cochin Project Hen.She's to big to sit on anything.She squashes anything you put under her.Don't know if I want to give her anything this year or not yet.
Penny:Buff Cochin Bantam Hen.She's currently sitting on 6 Northern Bobwhite Quail Eggs due to hatch March 1st.I'll keep you updated on that.

Those are my broodies that I have at the moment.Please share all you want about your broodies.
Thanks.Cole.
