Phosphorus Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Roast my current broody hen lays huge eggs occasionally 100g and higher - she lays massive poos too. Sounds like you are in for some huge eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aga n Chickens Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Hello Just read this. Luckily our frequent broody has not gone broody this month. Only had the chickens since Easter and Rene has been broody 3 times and out of laying for 2 weeks each time. On her broody days I've had to lift her out of the nest box on my return from work knowing that she has been there all day and needs to eat and drink. Within 5 minutes of leaving the nest box and stretching her legs, she deposits a tennis ball sized poop, bless her she must hold on and not want to mess up the nest box ! Kind regards Christine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
