Yeah, I thought it was cute until I ended up with a broody hen from HELL. I swear she'd brood on anything. She's brooded IN THE RAIN ON THE MUDDY GROUND for an entire day.

I'd trade you two of my non-broodys for your one broody from hell. None of my girls ever go broody. I've got a guinea hen that raised two batches of guinea chicks this year. I'm so over run with guineas we have started making the occasional pot of guinea gumbo. I'm seriously thinking about taking her eggs away next spring and replacing them with chicken eggs.
