Ever had a winter broody?

Not pretty, but the enclosure is hardware cloth.

Aslong as your hen and babies are safe who cares

My BOrp tried to go broody the other night, but the stubborn girl lays behind the hay which is by the window! I put her back in the roost and took the egg. I told her she raise all the babies she wants in the Spring

I would love to see pictures of your hens and their chicks (when they hatch).

My only two hens that go broody always do it only in the winter! I haven't had a rooster until recently, so I might try for chicks sometime.

Thank you I have her and another white silkie hen and a buff silkie rooster in a pen I made out of a swingset frame and I have another big pen that is 20foot by 20foot and 7 foot high so the swingset pen will be easy to cover

I have a black silkie sitting on 9 AM and AM/EE mixes due on the 16th. All were developing nicely the last time I checked.
