Good morning everyone! It has been a while since I've been on.
We have a few of our girls that are all going broody at the same time. We have a total of 49 eggs that we have found the girls in the woods sitting on! They are happy and sassy as can be and since we have no idea when the eggs were laid we are allowing them to hatch them!
So here are my quesitons.
My husband is building a much large coupe for the upcoming new brood. BUT how do we get the girls transfered with their babies.
Should we move the eggs or leave them? I'm concerned about predators in FL.
And once this is done or the chicks hatch is there a way to get the girls to lay in the new extra large coupe? We have five acres of woods and apparently that is where they want to lay and we don't know when they are laying. We want to collect the eggs.
Anyone?
and Thank you!
