Hello Christal

I put jugs of frozen water and frozen green peas out for them. As for hurricanes I plan on putting them in the garage but I guess it depends on how many you have.
Nice to meet you too

Here in western West Palm Beach (southeast Fla) I have a few hens who have gone broody. Please let me know ASAP if you have some eggs you'd like for them to hatch for you. I have bantams & standards who could cover 6-10 eggs, I think. My girls have successfully incubated chicken, duck, & goose eggs, could probably handle turkey & guinea eggs too, maybe even peacock.

I could keep them "on hold" for a few more days, let me know if this offer interests you.
 
I usually set these hens with eggs from my standard-sized layers. I have some purebreds as well as mixed-breeds, and several different breeds of standard-sized roosters. So the chicks are a lovely mix of large breeds, interesting colors & patterns. The pullets make nice layers of brown, green or tinted eggs, and the cockerels grow out very handsome, are usually well-mannered, and welcome in the yard or on the table.

Although I also have a nice little flock of mixed-breed bantams I don't set their eggs. I wouldn't mind having more of these bantam hens, they lay tasty eggs & often go broody for me. But I don't have much use for the little roosters. There are already 5 of them that we cannot bear to send to the table, I can't risk having the kids fall in love with any more! And they just aren't really worth the effort to process, they don't have much meat on them.

This year I have had broody hens hatch eggs from my Khaki Campbell ducks, but I haven't had much luck selling them. (Psst! Wanna buy a duck?) So I don't want to set more of them right now. I have also had hens hatch eggs from my Embden goose with great success! But the goose has stopped laying, has gone broody herself on her last 3 eggs.

I would like to have some different eggs for hatching now, would like to do someone the favor & let my broodies hatch eggs for them and care for their chicks. But if none are offered I will set them with our own eggs again.

You make me want to buy some hatching eggs... mine stopped laying while they were sick and though they're like 90% better this weather and the fireworks are not gonna encourage them to start laying again anytime soon...
