My very first broody ever just hatched out two Turken babies last Tuesday. I didn't really expect naked necks out of these eggs (I only had four eggs, and the only one I knew for certain was Turken was stolen by a predator, like one other egg) so I am simultaneously intrigued and freaked out! I would not have picked Turkens, as I don't care for the whole bare neck thing, but I am hoping they grow on me. They sure are cute (but weird) as babies. Before anyone asks, the eggs were free, and the guy thought they were Cochin, Blue Marans or White Rock or some combination of those, as he has a mixed flock. So, she still counts as a broody!

Shirley Welsummer is my second and current broody. Buffy was the first, hatching a single chick - my first GrandChick! - on June 24th. Shirley's small clutch of 4 is due to hatch in 2 days on Oct 5th.
