Adorable!!!!  I know nothing about Frizzles though.

Very nice build!!  
I agree (I actually have the same thought process about religion).  I never, ever thought I would have a gun in my house, but I've changed recently, and am dating someone with probably 10 of them.  He stores them safely (only 1 is easily accessible, but well hidden).  I trust that he knows what he is doing.

I have a silkie that went broody, another hen crawled in next to her and went broody right along with her.  I've fenced them both off.  They seem comfy, so I'm not going t mess with them.  Good luck with Babylon!!!  How are you tracking the eggs - if Jar Jar is adding an egg each time, are you pulling those out?

I have been marking the eggs and each time a unmarked one appears i pull it out , the day before babylon went broody i thought jar jar was going broody cause she spent the night on eggs in the nest box and she has never slept in the box before then the next morning babylon got on the eggs and hasnt left them

I have the same thing going on with the turkeys right now. Pebbles has been sitting for over a month so far and ask the girls keep laying eggs in her box with her. It's hilarious to see three turkey hens crammed into that nest lol. But, one of my other hens has been thinking of going broody and has been squeezing in with Pebbles and helping her keep her ceramic egg warm. Every time I check for eggs, Mary runs out. If I have a good hatch this weekend, I'm going to pick 2 chicks out to give Pebbles. Maybe the girls will work together to raise them up and snap out of the broodiness.

Has anyone ever tried letting a turkey raise bantam chicks? I'm thinking that may be too dangerous for the chicks but I've just offered to buy any bantam polish chicks that a guy nearby hatches lol

Maybe if she has lots of them she couldn't kill them all?

I didn't think to mark the eggs. I do feel bad, the first to go broody has 6 under her, the second only has 2. They are a week apart, so it should be interesting once eggs start hatching!

Again, I wish you the best for your hatch!!

You going to brood them all in the same brooder? That's when things will get really interesting!

I would keep them in a brooder or something for a couple days until they get a little stronger because Bantams bones are really fragile when they are first hatched
