Yes, well I'm not sure because my silkies are rosecomb crosses so maybe the cross between them is making it happen.

Welcome to BYC!

Hens lay one egg a day until the clutch of eggs is laid. Then the hen will begin the process of incubation.

Good luck with any broodies you have and I hope you get some spring chicks soon!
