I have a little Cochin Batam that has been broody for months. I built a seperate area for her today. Has nestbox, roost, and small run. I want to stick some EE eggs under her. How many is the max?
How many eggs for a broody hen?

Standard EE eggs are big, you probably don't want more than 4-5 under a bantam.
