Is it true that capons will brood chicks?

[ninjascrub69]

I was reading a thread about caponizing, and it said that capons will brood chicks...... is there any truth to this?

How logical does it seem to you?

 

[donrae]

I've had neutered males of many species and they've never developed maternal instincts

 

[mountainvieworchards]

It is true

 

[sourland]

Yes, and I'll bet eunuchs nurse babies too?
