How Often Do Your Bantams Go Broody?

[Hybridchucks]

A little while ago I bought 2 lovely pekin/cochin bantam pullets and a cockerel. I love them so much
I purchased them because I heard they make great mothers and that's what Im looking for, and they haven't started laying yet.
I was wondering how many times a year you pekins go broody?

I am not sure on how many pekins go broody but I have two (not sure what breed they are they were given to us) that have been broody twice since spring so far. They are just over a year old.
If they are to young to lay it may be next year before they go broody (if they go broody).

Thank you : )
That's what I was thinking, probably next spring

My Cochin bantams (called Pekin in the UK) have been broody 3-ish times this year...

I have silkies and one of my silkie hens has been broody about three times so far this year.
