How many eggs for a Broody

[sunshine23]

I have a young broody GLW, how many eggs should I give her?

I think it's 8-10 for LF. For bantam, 6-8.

She's a regular sized hen

So 8-10... You might fit more... Just put some under her until she can no longer cover them all..

I have 18 under my white rock and your bird is about the same size. I would put 14 to start and see if she can cover them all if she covers them all try a few more. If you can see eggs under her thats to many.
