I got a new roo and 2 hens yesterday for free off craigslist. They look like a trio of Mille Fleur D'Uccle. Anyway - after I got them home, I realized that one of the hens has NO tailfeathers - as in NONE!!! The girl I got them from was not very informative, but thought they were a year old. She says " they don't lay everyday, but then, they laid 13 eggs in one day" ????? She also said only one hen lays because tht is the only one that always is on the nest.
I was wondering if the one hen was broody and pulled her tail feathers and was sitting on the 13 eggs??
Anyone??
