Yes they get protective of their nests… this one wants me to stop taking eggs… she is going to be super happy when I give her chicks to care for… I have live order coming soon.

Yes, smoked eggs does sound yummy. How does one smoke eggs? Seems like the papers would fall off . . . .

I’m so sorry, folks! I just couldn’t resist . . .

I didn't get a single egg today.
All these crazy hoochies are broody... it's true, broodiness is contagious...

How do you do that?
I have a very brood hen. She'll fluff her feathers but I shhh her and pet her and she let's me take her eggs. She's pulled all her stomach feathers, her comb got weird. She won't leave her nest to eat or drink. I tried bringing her food and I take her out of the nest. Sometimes she'll eat other times she won't. I gave her a couple of eggs to see if she'll hatch them but shes been jumping from one nest to another. She wants more eggs.
