If you want a broody hen get a silkie!

If you got two you can introduce them together using a run. Integration is usually easy. If you want them I can help you with the integration process, I hatch chicks and integrate them all the time and after my next batch I will consider myself an expert lol.

Hatchery maybe? But I think there’s a minimum you have to buy. Google broody breeds maybe there are some near you.

Woah! Nevermind. How about buying silkie eggs and using those instead of eggs from your hens.

Ok this is just getting hard! Just a suggestion. Just go with hatching your own in an incubator! I tend to go off and suggest unrealistic idea lol

Metal roost not a great idea, especially in a cold climate....

No bedding in nests...are those roll out nests....missing the trough cover???
