I Have A Hen And The Breed She Is Will Rarely Go Broody, HELP!

[Bantam lover132]

I have a Rosecomb bantam and I need to know how to make her go broody, naturally Rosecombs will rarely ever go broody in their life-time, does anybody know how to make her go broody?

Unfortunately you can't make them. In many breeds the instinct has been bred out of them.

That sucks, do you know how to hatch an egg without an incubator?

You'll have to get her a bantam friend who likes to be broody. Old English Game Bantams are fantastic.

You need an incubator or a broody hen. No way around that.
