Hello all,
Last year was my first time hatching eggs. Both from an incubator and a broody hen. Out of each batch was one breech egg. Now I did not know about a breech chick until after the fact. Does anyone know how to prevent it? I know you can assist but it can be hard to tell if a chick is breech.

Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
