Broody hen ended up with 5 chicks. Two hatched with her one of those died. 4 hatched in incubator. All doing well with her. Four more are going broody.

aww cute Peter, what breeds are broody for you? whites is needing a good broody breed that can fit some eggs under her bum and stand up to mr roo too

I always keep a mixed flock, but I'm 2 for 2 on a black copper marans going broody in her first year. I had speckled sussex, one was a good mama and one bad, right now I've got the BCM, cochin, and HRIR broody. I haven't let them gave hatching eggs yet. SOON. So far they all seem pretty determined, though the BCM usually wins for most eggs at the end of the day.

Campin what kinda food did you buy for the goats when so little?

The powdered milk from TSC. I started with baby bottles from dollar tree, but had to get the black rubber nip on a coke bottle for Beaux. Had to fight him a solid week, 3x a day, til he learned to take it. They're ~4.5 mos and still just the sweetest little babies.

Mine were estimated 4 weeks when we got them. I'm waiting for mama Roxie to drop. Her bag isn't as flat, so .
