Nice flock! And I love that big boy of yours..lol..I can almost hear him in that second photo.
And..how in the world do you get allll of those nest boxes to be used. I have six boxes. Only three get used now. One is a favorite, and if it is wanted by another hen, we have to hear about it until the one in there is done! Silly girls.
Uggums is broody. I have eggs in lock down, and they are starting to hatch. Had one hatch this morning..did a sneak job out to Uggums. This is her first time, so I am watching her today with this little. Will sneak more out as they hatch.
Look close, you can see the head in the first, then I lifted her wing. She just sat there growling at me at first, then I decided to move her off of the baby by the water. Glad I did..she drank a lot..it got hot here today. Then, I put her back over the baby. She did that wiggle waggle over the baby, so I'm not too worried.
Can't even tell she is a smooth SG. All tucked in.
Cynthia, I have a broody I separated today intending to put chicks under tonight. Only two hatched. I don't want to tend only two!
Lisa, you have a beautiful flock and beautiful eggs!! Love the one you got from Cynthia - it looks like a sheep dog chicken! Do you have any fertile eggs?
