daxigirl Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Now I thought I'd introduce the grower girls which are LF to the banties. At this time last week Brillo was being broody and had comandeered the nest box anyway this week she decided that eggs weren't her thing . She is now spending all her time with the growers who are all bigger than her. Today they went out into the back garden while I cleaned and she was like a chaperone, chatting away at them and rounding them up. This evening she chivvied them all to bed. Bless she's found her calling. Is this normal behaviour, the growers are 8 weeks ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I think, given time, she will make an excellent Mum It sounds to me like she has strong maternal instincts - see how she goes next time she appears broody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
