I believe Spoo is Old english game and campne mix. Not sure though. At her time Lil' Roo was the only Bantam rooster we had and he was Old English Game, Her mother was Campine as far as I know. I say this because she is identical to my Campine, Speckles, other than her coloring is brown and black instead of silver and black.
As far as your fiesty one wanting to go broody, all the advice I can offer is if you have mans to fertile eggs get her some. Chances are she won't lay unti she hatches, been there done that. We have some broody cochin bantams now that I decided to let hatch out some eggs. I endend up giving in just because they had been this way since begining of May. I was told a true broody won't quit until they hatch some babies. If she is the same breed of Spoo, she'll be broody alot. Spoo's always broody and so are and were her siblings and mama hen.
Alot of people do sell or even just give away fertile eggs, run an add. If you were closer, I'd be more than glad to give you some. I just don't like the idea of shipping them, since they are so fragile. But if nothing else fails, let me know and I'll ship some out to you for just the price of postage.
