These are the three spangled OEGB I have left. If you are coming to POOPS saturday I could bring them then.

I will be bringing some of these guys, too:

I'm sending the husband to Walmart tonight. Nothing's helping so far and the vanilla trees can't hurt to try.

@bardies-excellent idea! If you take the eggs do they go back to laying or just keep laying with the intent to sit?

They will lay some, until their ideal clutch size is layed - but I think that they typically go broody after the ideal number has been laid. The eggs that the kids are collecting are mostly from the non broody hens that will take advantage of the periodic absence while the broodies eat, or sometimes will actually sit on top of them to get to the desired nesting spot.

The best way to break a broody is to give her chicks. Now, whether I have chicks or want to risk them is another story. Some are good moms and some are not.

Anyone have any fertile turkey eggs between elk city and okc close to I-40 or inside okc

all the sleepy chickies.

This is Gwen. At least I *hope* it's a Gwen. She's very dominant to the other two....

And little Scooter. Scooter is already the favorite. Even my husband loves Scooter. Scooter may be a boy or girl - if girl then YAY if boy... well then Gwen just better hope she stays a "Gwen" because Scooter stays!

Uh Gwen is a boy based on the size and color of the comb. Sorry! Can't tell on scooter, sometimes on silkies you have to wait for an egg or a crow before you know.

I don't know but might have to have one. Looks like it's having a bad hair day for sure.

It is from a frizzled cochin roo crossed with a rhode island red hen. So it's a frizzled cross, and it's a boy. I'm wanting $8 for him. He's the last one, I'm bringing him Saturday to POOPS.
