I have a TSC red sexlink that has gone broody the last two years. As soon as I start loading up the incubator she plops her butt on a nest and says "Me too!"My best broodies have been Barnevelders, Heritage Barred Rocks, mutts and Icelandics.

My Barred Rocks have gone broody more than any of the other breeds I have.Maybe that's why mine refuse to go broody....
Ha ha. If you are looking for broody hens I would recommend Black copper Marans or Speckled Sussex!
