Hi! I just had to tell about my part buff and part game hen. She became broody. None of the eggs hatched. That was over 21days. I ordered 25 chicks. They came three weeks later. That hen was still sitting on golf balls. I took the new babies out there and took one golf ball and gave her one chick until the golf balls were all out. Then I just handed her chicks. There were 26 baby bared rocks. She took them all and didn't loose any of them. It was in the middle of the summer. It was so neat to watch her gather each chick as I handed them to her and tuck them under her. I really like my chickens they are so much fun.
