My first broody hen,a cuckoo marans, has hatched her 1st chick.It is a cute feather leg cuckoo marans chick. She has 10 more eggs. I guess I will forgive her for going broody and depriving me of her eggs. I have a second broody,another cuckoo marans hen,blast her, and I will set her with Delaware eggs today or tomorrow.These girls don't understand that I have their potential eggs sold,lol.
Congrats Gina, i didn't realize that Marans were prone to going broody. I have 5 broody Sizzles and Silkies right now and you are sure right it does not help egg production.
