I So Want A Broody Hen

[countrygirl911]

I Would Love For One Of My Hens To Go Broody But No Luck So Far They Are Almost A Year Old And None Has Decided To Want To Hatch Any Eggs. Is There A Certain Age Or Time Of Year They Decide To Sit On Eggs.

usually spring is the best time. it also depends on the breeds you have; my silkie crosses hardly ever get of the nest! in general, loose feathered birds and heavy breeds make the best broodies.
