I let Olivia out yesterday and she stayed out all day, so I finally broke her from her broodiness, She is back to normal, but still no eggs from her yet.YAY for Daisy... she's so pretty too!! All your girls are lovely. Love those Polish but I was reading they're not cold hardy so I think I have to cross them off my list since I'm in PA and we get some pretty good cold spells and I would rather not heat my coop. Can't wait to see how your EE's turn out.
Hows the broody breaking going?
Finally tried it with my BB and she was about 2 fingers but also did it to my BR who has laid for months and she was a little over 2 fingers so I still don't know! My EE doesn't let me near her so maybe if I can grab her off the roost one day I'll check her.
Yay!!!! Some of my family members are just the same, until they taste the eggs.I finally got my first egg I was feeding and noticed a burrowed spot in one of the nesting boxes so I started feeling around and sure enough there it was I ran to the house to show my wife she was like it's just an egg loL. That was sat since then I've got eight more.
It sounds like you have a lot of hens laying now, all at the same time too, that's great! Congrats!I just got back from feeding and got three more eggs today so that's eleven since sat
Good question, I'd like to know the answer to this one too.can anyone tell me how dark the eggs of BCMs from Meyer tend to be? thanks!
What a beautiful picture!
Well done... mine is still broody. I don't have the space in the coop to put the cage with her in it so if I were to leave her in the cage all night she'd be out in the run. That makes me nervous so I guess she'l just stop being broody when she's ready.I let Olivia out yesterday and she stayed out all day, so I finally broke her from her broodiness, She is back to normal, but still no eggs from her yet.
How is your broody?

Good job Daisy and Sunni!!!
Yesterday I checked each of my 6 girls hip bones. They are 19.5 weeks now. Pearl/BA, Diamond/SS and syrprisingly Daisy/CW were a good loose finger. Bianca/WR and Goldie/BO were a snug finger. Olivia the EE wasn't even a finger.
I do have man hands... but still not too promising of an egg anytime soon.
