Silky Vs Cochin Bantams for Broodiness...?

[Connorrm]

So, which ones do you think will be better for broody surrogates. I ask because I have a few banty cochins I picked up...but now TSC has a good mix of silkies. Not sure if I should pick some of those up instead.

If you get a LF cochin I would say they are the best because they can hold maybe 4 times the amount of eggs as a silkie. They go broody a lot too. Both would be good moms, I would just pick what breed you want to look at everyday.

Good to know that Cochins go broody as often as the silkies.
