I have been going back and forth all night on whether or not to let my cochin/jap hen hatch some serama eggs for me. If i do so that would mean fuzzy butts in the house over winter and a hard adjustment putting her back into the flock when she is done with her babies. I really want to hatch some of these serama eggs but at the same time its such a chore taking care of the babies. I already have a quad of seramas living in my office and also have a brooder in there for when they hatch their own eggs. I went out to the coop yesturday to check on my hen who had been MIA all day and found her laying an egg, later in the evening i went out to the coop to lock them up for the night and found her broody in her nesting box. She is pretty young yet and i am not sure if she would make a good mother or not she is about 5 months old. What would you do?
How can i say no to a face like that....
