hmm that’s an interesting idea if we have any problem children still on day 18 I will go ahead and give them a few eggs to hatch to experiment.Why are you breaking your broody hens? You’re going to have to raise those chicks yourself!!
I am waaay to lazy to do that, I usually more the incubator eggs over to my broodies on day 18 and the hens take over from there. Saves me a lot of work, that’s for sure! But it’s understandable if your hens have been sitting for a long time already. Hopefully they will be easy to de-broodify.
Oh to know all the abbreviations necessary. Oft times I am in the dark.Oh how I envy your green grass! Here in the throes of our catastrophic drought. I have a broody BA right now. Her second broody session this summer. But I love the breed. Jolene was my oldest BA and my best buddy--she lived to be 9 years old.
