Yes, we actually got some Silkies to go with our Bantams and Turkens for our standards to (hopefully) have reliable broodies. They’re so precious! Our oldest are still not laying yet, so we’ve got a ways to go. But we would much prefer to have broodies handling it, then have the incubators in case of emergency.
