If you eat them, they will no longer be broody.

This is true ! ! ! I have never eaten one of my hens..... well, except the Cornish Cross.

Braclin, I favor JG's and Polish, they were my first choices and still are. Of course it could have been Orps or BR's or the like. I have 1 Polish hospice patient living in my house. She's in a crate, but she gets out for exercise on the tile floor.

Kathy, sorry for all your broodies. I had my 4 at the time in a long community nest. They were happy.

Is Cetawin still around? I haven't seen her post in a bit.

She just got back from a week long trip to Florida and is trying to get her house and life back in order again. She'll be along soon, I'm sure. I've spoken to her on the phone a few times already.
