How’s many eggs can I put under my broody hen

[Golden Brahma 64]

How many eggs do you think she can fit under her ? She’s a Rhode Island Red.... I have six Brahma eggs coming on Tuesday and I’m thinking about adding some of my own flocks eggs in too...

Try for an odd number. They seem to fit better that way.

I put 12 Brahma eggs under her, today is Day 11. I candled them on day 7 and ten eggs looked good. I’ll keep you posted on how that goes.

Today my broody duck hatched out some ducklings
I saw a little beak pocking out from under her wing. I’ll post some pics when she lets me see them
