Thank you. Yes, they usually have that necklace thing going on don't they? I have one that really is laced out nice. Here's Daisy.

She is gorgeous... her lacing goes all the way down her back. Mine lay petty well also. Just there eggs aren't very large. Got them from Ideal back last April. Been looking from some nice RIW and start hatching my own. Just haven't found the RIW's I like.

Really, smaller eggs? This girl lays really nice big eggs! Most of my RSL's have. I do have one right now that isn't laying real large, but she has only been laying almost two months. They have slowly gotten bigger since she started.
I hatched some RIW's..They are huge birds! At least the ones I got were. I sold mine. Didn't want one that big. :/

Nope, no special treatment. She's one of my favorite hens, and one day I opened the nesting box to find this:




So I just let her do her thing

wow..so cute, hopefully this happened for my hen.

Quote: Hopefully she will stick to it. All of my RSL's that seemed to go broody always quit. Yours does look pretty determined. I had an RIW that was such a broody that she didn't want to get off of her nest so I would have to make her get off every day for a bit, then she would eat, drink and poop and when I unblocked her nest she was back on it in a flash. Good luck and have fun...

She did stick to it! Those are pictures from this summer. She's in my avatar with two of her chicks

Wow that is great. I have some birds right now that want to be broody but I'm not ready to hatch yet.

Love your birds.
