Pretty little Broody Hen


Well I guess we misjudged the date of her hatching those little eggs. 21 little chicks hatched from the bator on the 29th of February and she is still sitting.


So last night we went in and candled a couple of eggs, just to make sure all was well. We had to remove a couple that our other hen has been laying next to her and she just dutifully tucks under her. It seems that everything is fine the eggs are to term and still wiggling around. So we will leave her to her well done job and see what comes of it. It should be any day now!
