Thanks for the well wishes TJordan! The broodies eggs are fertile, but they're the questionable line so I took their eggs away and gave them some of the Easter Egger's eggs. The first two got 3 eggs each and the last Silkie (I was right, she is full on broody) got 4 eggs 'cause she's a bit bigger. Just about killed me taking away their eggs, I guess I'd been busy and 3 eggs had already started to develop.

Everybody's eggs are marked so there's no mix ups. I lift the broodies up a couple times a day and take out the excess eggs...lol.

10 eggs yesterday
13 eggs today

Life's too short not to say all the good things.

That's what I think.

How about chatting another day then?

There is no rush.

Sunday



9 eggs



7 eggs from the control group

two new ladys a laying

2 eggs from the free range chickens

I need to climb under the shed as I think there hiding due to the rain

Temp 74F degrees this morning and then the dark clouds rolled in so I spent a good part of the day resting inside

This old women is able to stay on her eggs all day but got off this evening just before I closed the door on the coop

Can I plant rosemary in my chicken run? I was thinking I could put wire around it till it stabilizes and to keep the girls from eating the whole plant. It would add another constant green in thier yard well also providing an area to hide/play.

Thank some 2"x4"s and build a square then stretch some hardware cloth over it. Place this over your "chicken garden" area. I'm going to plant deer clover.
The hardware cloth allows your plants to grow and chickens can nibble but not tear up the roots.

3 for 3 today. Lilly was late in the day. Her cycle is just longer than the others.
