Broody's what's the best in standard size

[Robert McGaughey]

I've got 2 GLW's and 8 BR's. I hear that the GLW's will go broody better than the BR's. I'm wanting hatch some of my eggs this spring/summer and I'm just wondering my chances on this. Is there a better breed than the GLW's for broody??

I have heard that the buff orps are great broodies. So last spring I got a couple. I did have three hens go broody last summer... a RIR, an EE and a welsummer. Just the other day I had a GLW fiercely guarding a golfball but she quit the next night.
