I never have broody hens.

My Yokohama mix hen Yokie Jr is broody a lot she is about 5 years old now. When she went broody about 2 years ago I decided to let her sit on eggs. She hatched the five eggs and was a great mother. Last year I hatched 2 Serama chicks and 3 mix breed chicks in an incubator. They lived in the brooder for a few days but then I realized that I had a bunch of broody hens. I gave Yokie Jr and another hen the chicks and they did a great job raising them again. This year im hoping my Serama hens go broody because I love seeing the Serama chicks running around outside with the mother

I had...let me think...9 hens going broody, (not all at the same time, but even though) and at least 4 went broody twice.

So many....

i just borrow my moms phone, take the pictures i want, airdrop them to the laptop and then delete them off the phone. Its a hassle

Pretty much the same here.

He is doing well. He has been pushing his limits but learning, he had trraining class last night and was super well behaved!

Yeah, don't have any of those.

What breed is he?
Sorry if you have said before, but I think I missed it.
