I'm thinking of trying to hatch my own chicks with a homemade incubator. The hens do not stay on the eggs after they lay them. I have two roosters so i know some of the eggs would be fertile. Has anyone tried??

My welsummer/rir has gone broody. lol.Any chicken can go broody, although some breeds are less known for it, like the welsummer, and some, lke the silkie, is very well known.
They usually lay their egg and leave, even though some think they need to rest a bit on the nest after laying. lol
if you have a rooster, eggs are fertile. try hatching! FYI- its addicting![]()
