Hello everybody,
I am fairly new to raising chickens. Last year my children and I hatched 1 rooster in our home made incubator. We loved him and built him a wonderful coop and run ( probably spent too much) and bought him 4 hens to live with him, since our hatching abilities were apparently not so great. Unfortunately our beloved Peep died last night reason unknown. But we have been reading up on fertilized eggs and have reason to believe that the eggs the hens have been laying may be fertilized and we've been letting them collect. However as we bought Hen's to be laying hens we think they may be one of those breeds where the brooodiness has been bread out of them so our question is....
Where can we find a broody hen to carry on Peeps Legacy?
Around Brantford, Ontario?
