If you break a broody in nesting, she will try again a few months later. My black and ‘partridge coloured’ Dutch get broody about 3 -4 times each year even without leaving eggs in the nest. The older the harder to break their broodiness. In general this starts at the end of winter and ends early autumn. A pyle Dutch and the Tournaisisses didn’t get broody until now. Maybe they are not ‘allowed’ being lower in the pecking order

Next spring I want new chicks and bc I don’t have a rooster I need to buy fertile eggs somewhere. I haven’t decided yet what breed I will buy. Maybe bantam Auracana or Bielefelder.
