Alis girls Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Young hen just past POl and laying smallish eggs daily now. Laid today - small egg - she is staying in next box. Is she too young to be broody? At first I thought she was trying to lay a big egg but its normal size. Bum is clean - eating and drinking small amounts. Could she be broody?

staceychristie Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Does she peck you or get really grumpy if you try to move her? Does sound a bit young, but various things can affect them. Stacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
