Don't need a roo for a hen to go broody. So just keep in mind you may need to break her if you don't have the space for more.

Right but I have to have a roo to fertilize the eggs right? So even if she sat on them they wouldn’t become chicks?Don't need a roo for a hen to go broody. So just keep in mind you may need to break her if you don't have the space for more.
Yep, no chicks. But... I'm sure you could find some fertile hatching eggs locallyRight but I have to have a roo to fertilize the eggs right? So even if she sat on them they wouldn’t become chicks?

Everyone would get an A+...1+1=8+a batch of chicks (but they don't count cuz they're not chickens yet=8+3 (jumped in your cart at TSC) but they don't count either, cuz they're not chickens yet=8 chickensAlways with the chicken mathgood thing they don’t teach that in school…kids would be very confused hahaha

I was going on the assumption that I had somewhere around 70 or 80 total including all I hatched this spring. I made the mistake of tallying up my pens, and I'm actually over 110Is there a clause in chicken math if you lose count? If so I believe you're suppose to 'round' down by 3.![]()

but like 40 of them are silkies so thats really like 15 there, some will be processed, so those don't actually count right?
