9 under one Silkie ( 6 of my BLRW-3 split lav silkie eggs-mine)
6 under another silkie ( 5 of my BLRW-1 of my Olive egger eggs)
5 under another silkie ( 2 of my BLRW-3 of my split lav silkie eggs)
All my split lav silkies went broody
so If Im not getting eggs for a long time Im going to have a good reason not to have eggs as I dont want to get that bator out again
I have 7 under a bantam cochin right now....I put 6 under there and mysteriously another full size egg ended up under there. Today is day 21. Two have hatched so far.
Recently I had a hen sit and hatch 15 eggs. She is part silkie, part OEG LF, so not all that big, but most of her eggs were either BR, leghorn, or OEG.
I'm sure that 15 is about average around here, even the little OEGB's get at least 10.
