It's funny, I have young silkies.  They will be a year in May.  They showed no signs of going broody, but I put 18 silkie babies into their coop, and the rooster tried to go after them, but the hens protected the babies.  I took the babies out after about 2 hours.  About 4 days later, one hen went broody, 5 days after that, another went.  Only thing I can think is giving them babies, then taking them away, trigger broodiness?????????


Lol thanks for the suggestion... I've actually tried that before, not trying to get her to go broody but only because a bear destroyed my Silkie coop so only place I could put her was in the brooder with 5 new chicks. She was nice to them but never went broody after I removed her and motherly instincts didn't take over either while she was with them. Just my luck I guess.
 
Hey, someone who knows,
Don't those chickens (Ayam Cemanies, or something similar to that) that are totally black, inside & out, also lay black-shelled eggs?
I was surfing threads earlier, and someone was saying that no breed lays black eggs

Nope. A breed of duck does though...
