Oh and they are doing very well together. One will get off the nest and the other will sit. Then the other will get off while the other sits. Then they will scoot over for the other to get back in the nest.
 
Yes miss lydi! Im excited but very worried. Drake named duke, black swedish boy, will chase the broody hens with his head down whenever they come off the nest to get into the water. Im worried he'd kill the babies. Worst come to worse ill take the babies, but I dont want to do that.
 
Well, My Black Hen and my Chocolate pied hen have started laying finally !! I collected a weeks worth for myself, Starting tomorrow i will let them start to build a clutch to hatch.. Now for the other six to start up...
 
Mine just make their own nest inside their house give them shaving and a quiet corner they'll do the rest.

Duckie surprised me with these today, I was busy and forgot to check yesterday. I haven't added a nest box yet, but I shoved an old covered cat pan with straw in it into her little coop as a temporary nest when I built it. 10 months old this week, and finally laying. :lol:
