Crowing
That’s the issue I had with my pekin, she would only sit 2 weeks and then stop and then immediately find a new nest to sit on, she did it 3 times in a row and I started to worry about her health so that’s when I tried the swap. I had just picked some babies up at TSC though, maybe with yours being “super fresh” babes you’d have a better chance.Will do. Hopefully get the babies on Friday and then switch out the eggs. Thankfully I started an incubator full of eggs the same time I gave her eggs. So shouldn't be a big deal, just not sure if she will sit for a full 4 weeks on her nest - so maybe babies will work better.
Even though she didn’t take to them it did stop her broodiness (is that a word? Lol) and that’s really what I was after.
I hope it works for you!
