High-heeled alright thank you ,she usually lays eggs once every 2 days so I'll seeWhen to expect them and how many all depends on her. Every hen is different and their laying cycles can change at any time.
It has nothing to do with her breeding or not.
This is exactly right. Your hens lay eggs even if they never even laid eyes on a rooster. How often they lay eggs depends mostly on what breed of chicken she is but each bird is different and isn't dependent on a rooster. Is your Banty broody or are you using an incubator? The eggs may be fertilized but if she isn't broody she won't sit on them all day.When to expect them and how many all depends on her.

Ohh Ohhhhh I see,no she isn't broody sadly could they still possibly hatch?,I heard if she has 4-5 eggs she'll be broody but she has two only and I'm not an expert all I do is hoping they can hatchThis is exactly right.

Nope. Hens go broody when they want, it doesn’t NOT depend on the number of eggs in her clutch. They will not hatch... unless you have a broody or an incubator.Ohh Ohhhhh I see,no she isn't broody sadly could they still possibly hatch?,I heard if she has 4-5 eggs she'll be broody but she has two only and I'm not an expert all I do is hoping they can hatch
There are tons of ways to make a homemade incubator, I’m confident you can find a way to make one!Ahhhhh thanks for the info I wish she'd go broody cuz I don't have an incubator I was thinking of making one but I'm anticipating a check but no sign of it in the mail
