Our speckledy is, thus far, the only one of our chooks to go broody. She did it last year just as the weather changed and she's done it again..do you think this means we are finally going to get some sunny weather?

Sorry for typos...

Two of my silkie crosses have been broody for over two weeks now and my third one joined them yesterday. I got fed up with them and have booted them out of the big house into the sin bin where hopefully as none of them are laying they will have no eggs to sit on. They seem to be geting back to normal after 24 hours of seperation but they can stay in there a bit longer. I nicknamed them the witches of eastwick, little madams.

Oh no! I have a naughty speckledy who is always broody. Hope she doesn't start yet

[sharon1]

Yep, my little wyandotte Ivy has also gone broody

[goodinparts]

My speckledy stopped a month ago...and has been having a post broody moult ever since but is laying again.

Could do without another broody phase atm....Are you listening, Brigid?

[keyhole kate]

My Silkie has gone broody too !

My Light Sussex is broody now

My Buff Sussex bantam has been broody the past couple of weeks. She is very grumpy.

Annoyingly Sage, my young Wyandotte is showing all the signs of being broody, I was hoping for a broody, but a mature mum not some young flipperty jibbet. So it's the slammer for her!

Seems we all have one.

 

I keep finding a screaming banshee in the nest box and when she's turfed out in the garden she mutters constantly and will take on anyone. She was such a nice shy little wyandotte last week. Hormones eh?

[sharon1]

I take it Wyandotte's are prone to broodiness. Do Aruacana's and Appenzellers go broody at all by any chance? Hope not. When I lift my little Wyandotte out of the coop she just plants herself on the ground stubbornly and doesn't move until she cools down and then runs back in the coop omitting food and water on route, am quite concerned she doesnt eat/drink enough

Sounds broody Sharon. If you are concerned you could try dunking her in cold water to get her out of it or you could put her in a dog crate on bricks with food and water for 3 days to enable her to cool down. Seems harsh but I believe it works.

We've got rain today in London - having had sun for days - so now we know who to blame - a little broody speckeldy hen.

Broody Barbara has come out today. It is a lot cooler at the moment.

[Barkisland]

My Light Sussex is broody now

 

Mine too - it's been over a week now

(Little does she know that nestbox arrangements will be changing this weekend when my new roll away chick boxes arrive )

[Mollie333]

Two Pekins broody, and on eggs.

[migsy]

I would love to hatch eggs under my broody but I couldn't deal with any cockerels. What will you do with yours Mollie? I thought about Cream Legbars as you can tell their sex at 1 day old apparently but I couldn't kill a cute fluffy chick.
