sheik Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 What happens when you need to lay, but there is a broody chicken on your nest that is twice your size? Well, unfortunately you risk being treated like an egg... : When I opened the egg port I couldn't see poor Saffy at all - then her head popped up from underneath Pootle. I'm surprised she could breathe! /\dam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meezers Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 A couple of weeks ago I thought I'd lost one of my chooks - I couldn't see her in the run when I checked first thing, she wasn't in the house, I even went as far as checking around the garden to see if she'd been shut out the night before It wasn't until I checked the house a second time that her head popped up from under Elsie, who'd been sitting on her in the nest box !

hillfamily Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 awwww........so cute :D my tiny bantam Millie, is frequently 'missing' under one of the bigger chooks when they snuggle in the nestbox at night :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebird Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 That is so funny. She looks as though she is wearing a feather boa. Very stylish. My goodness, aren't your chickens clean. My Light Sussex looks more like a Buff Sussex at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I think that is happening here. The big girls just whinge because Cheyenne is in the nesting box for quite some time - then they just give up and go in. They don't take as long as they normally do, so it must be a quick stop 'n drop session. So I must have a broody hen then. I was told that the Buff's were quite broody and the breeder said that the other girls mums weren't (hopefully my other two won't be either!). I did have my suspicions, so checked on the sticky first - your photo's certainly helped! One covered freezer block coming up then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
