I have just found my first ever egg!! From my silkie chickens. She laid it under a swing. It has definitely only just been laid a couple of hours ago.
I’m not 100% on which out of the two older hens it was... and my cockrel is mating with both multiple times per day.
ideally I’d like to raise some chicks either to sell or keep (not sure)
I don’t know what to do! I was planning be on letting nature take its course as silkies are supposed to be broody? But ive put the egg inside the coop along with a decal egg..
I added two new hens on Thursday.. which haven’t gelled with the group yet and they seem scared still at the moment and overwhelmed.
I free range the chickens and lock them in a coop at night.
Advice please!!!
