I have a Del. that has been clucking like a broody for at least 6 months. She sat for a total of 3 days and didn't stick. She is laying so I can not complain. Crazy hens. Gloria Jean

Thanks ChicKat! It's not spotted, just a little dirt. Despite the fact I picked it up right after she laid it. It was still warm when I took this pic. lol.Hi QuackerJackFarms
Beautiful blue----is it spotted, or did the camera give a 'noise' picture. Great egg...congratulations.
You could be describing my alpha cockerel. He does the same thing. When I pick up one of the girls he gets quite worried and runs right over. The other 2 (not dominant) are pretty sweet too.My Cream legbar Cockerel is very gentle with the hens. He is charming and always is finding things for them to eat...He is constantly on patrol for danger to protect the hens.
He did sort of charge me once...but I think he was only kidding.... He is for the most part a tremendous sweetheart. He is very protective of the hens...when I pick one up and she squawks he is instantly there to protect her but then he sees it is me and his hackles go down. Don't know if all Cream Legbar cockerels are this good---but I would rate my little guy among the best of roosters.
