Well, I reached the end of my tether this morning and decided the the three broodies need breaking.

 

My little pekin, is such a fiery little moo when broody, she managed one peck too many! She was turfed out of her nest and a plant pot filled it. She immediately nestled down into the tiny spot beside the plant pot There's now a log and plant pot in there. Grrrrrr

 

Broody number two is a cochin - she's only been laying a few weeks so I was not expecting broodiness this year. She's placid as anything but is so big that no- one else could squeeze in the nest box. She's been turfed out and distracted.

 

Broody number three is my brahma bantam. She's still kind of being a mum to the ten week old chicks, has laid a handful of eggs and has decided that she wants to be a mum again Well stuff that, she's only just got her feathers back. So, she's in the sin bin.

 

I have neighbours knocking daily wanting to buy eggs, but what with the brooding and moulting, eggs are in short supply.

I guess I have all this to look forward Too!!

Mummies - no not for them.

 

Barack'o brahma is still kind of being a mummy, the pekins too small to mother anything and the cochin is still too young
