BarbaraJ Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I have a large dog crate i use for broody chickens and at the moment i have 2 of them could i put 2 in together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 You could, but they might just huddle up together and defeat the object of cooling them down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I agree. And they'll just egg each other on! Or not, if you know what I mean!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I have read that having another hen in there may distract the broody one. But I guess that only works when only one of them is broody. Could you beg/borrow a wire cat carrier for the other one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickyhazel Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 You could always use something to split the dog crate in half so they can both go in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
