Hmm, maybe. It’s hard to tell.
Do you have even a guess as to how long it’s been in there?

The 2 feather footed ones are bantam Cochins.
Everyone else has Americana, Leghorn, SLW, Welsummer, Austrilorp, Blue Laced Wyandotte, ISA Brown and a couple others as breed options. (I collected from several people at church.)

She might be. You’ll have to see how she is tomorrow!

But with Winter coming in, I’d say probably not. My flock typically is broody March through August.

But then again, you’ll have to see how she is in the morning, and especially if she sleeps in there tomorrow night too! Those features don't be lookin’ to happy! lol

It’s SUPPER important to know EXACTLY when you set your eggs. This matters for rotating, candling, and lockdown. I always just draw a small, red egg in the corner on the family calendar. Helps me keep track.

Do you have a special memory from around then that you could go back and look on to get maybe a guess of the set date?

Alright, see ya!!
