Polish mix broody

[TexasSam]

My question is are polish hens typically a broody breed? She just hatched a clutch a month ago and is broody again.

Looks more like a silkie mix, they are always broody.

Polish chickens typically do not go broody. What is the other half of her? That may be the cause of this. She's really pretty, by the way. Hope this helps!

I'm not sure as you can see she has dark legs and feathers on her feet also her waddles and comb are also dark. Silky is a possibility I really don't know but she is a good egg hatcher

I've never heard of a broody polish! Mine typically lays an egg and bolts as soon as it's out

Silky crosses are among the best broody hens that I have ever had.

I'm pretty sure she's a silkie. My silkie mix looks almost exactly like that besides the saddle feathers. And if it's a good egg layer it isn't PURE silkie.
