The Coop-D-etat
And to you good madame, I ruffle mine Feathers 🐓
I have some great news! We'll kinda stressful. So my lavender orpington Wisteria is I'm 95% positive is going broody. She has been in the nestbox the last two days I took her out to let her go to the bathroom and eat and drink some. She stayed out of the box for like a solid hour, but then went back in. I gave her all the fake eggs to sit on. And was thinking should I add some more?? The question is though. Will they be ok throughout the winter? Mind you we see -15° weather on a normal day here in North Dakota. Have you let a hen hatch some in fall?? I have an order ready. 2 olive eggers, 3 heritage barred rocks, and 2 more lavender orps. But I want to make sure she's serious She hasn't plucked her belly feathers yet. Also would it be wise to see if she will adopt new baby chicks? In case not ill have a brooder set up. But not sure if it's worth the hassle. She is only 27 weeks. Not quite sure what to do yet. Is it even worth my time??
Thank you for your time and thoughts,
