I have a question. I am new to chickens and new to this site. We have had some chickens for a few months now. I got 6 chicks from the store, 2 a little older from a lady. about 15-16 weeks now. and a rooster and an egg laying hen from her as well.
We didn't really know what we were donig at first then read that she can lay many eggs till she has a big enough grouping for a "brood" Anyway. so we stopped removing the eggs and waited. Didn't take long, now we are up to 15 eggs. an egg a day.
But why will she not lay on them or go "broody"
Any ideas. Thanks ahead of time.
