White Leghorn went Broody? Really?

[ceeceeholt]

I have 2 hens that went broody yesterday and one is a White Leghorn. I thought that they did not do that? I was so surprised, just thought she was being lazy laying, but no, I got up this morning and she is still sitting on 4 eggs.
Has anyone else had a Leghorn go broody?
Thanks!

yep sure have. I had 2 go broody a few years ago and also a rir, that hatched her own babies and was a wonderful mommy. It is rare but it does happen. I had even posted pics of them on here but that was years ago
