I have some BO's that are 7 months old that have been laying for a couple of months and I have one that is acting broody--how old are they usually before they get broody??? My other question is do they continue to lay an egg every day during the 3 weeks it takes for the eggs to hatch or do they stop. she has been on the nest fo two days and when I saw her still there today i went ahead and placed 5 more eggs in her box and she took her beak and rolled them right up underneath herself. I was going to order some more BO's but since she seems broody I am going to let her hatch some out if it is feasible.
