This past weekend I was collecting celadon eggs for someone. They waited patiently for me to set up my sex links and wait 2 weeks for them to be ready. The day I’m supposed to start collecting, one of my hens hit her head and we ended up culling her because she was paralyzed just below the hip.
No big deal egg wise, I still have plenty of 100% celadons...
I go to the general pop pen, and I see this:
This is one of my OGs from last year, Mihawk (I thought she was a boy, took forever to start laying) she has been persistently brooding for about 6 days. I tried to go get the eggs from her at prime laying time while I was collecting for hatching, so she wouldn’t ruin too many.
Today she was sitting on another new pile, a ton of them, so I took her and her eggs inside, and she’s happily brooding them:
Last year she was my most persistent broody, but I never gave her a chance, I’ll see how she does, she isn’t sitting on all of them, I took some away to make a more reasonable amount, most of them feel pretty warm. These are new eggs from yesterday and today, so 1-2 days old on 5/25. I can’t wait to see how she does.
