No one told my Buff Minorca girls they were not supposed to be broody- I have my third broody Buff Minorca since Christmas! I broke them a couple times but they just kept going broody and so I let three of them set eggs. They are good mommas! Tractor supply sold them as RIR- nope they had all the bins mixed up! They are now 11 months old and a great breed. Lay medium white eggs and very friendly
