So one of my bantam mix hens went broody yesterday and recently my little blue palm hen started laying...so I took my chickens eggs and slipped the turkey eggs under her!
I'm really hoping she'll be consitant for me and hatch them out. Right now she's got three under her, but my BBW hens have just started laying too so I might slip one of those under her too. The father I'm sure is one of our Narragansett toms seeing as the only other toms we have are a BBW and a young bourban red who still has to work his way up in rank before the hens will even let him think about breeding them. We probably won't be keeping the poults for ourselves, but I'm really interested to see what they are gonna look like.
So has anyone else had one of their banty girls hatch poults before?
