My pekin is definetly broody. She has been sitting her eggs for almost two weeks. Really hard for the past week. She has started hissing if you go near her nest like a goose will. I'm so glad she is sitting!
Everyone said she wouldnt, but she has! None of her eggs that I tried incubating hatched. I put them all in a skillet bator and someone bumped it knocking the temp off. Storey's guide says that Pekins make better broodys and mothers than muscovies, but everyone I talked to, including on here, told me that the sit had been bred out of them. Looks like I have one out of non commercial stock! Cross your fingers for a hatch!
