Another broody hen
After the succes of our first batch of 3 chicks who are now 8 weeks old and going strong in the nursey run another hen has gone broody. I set 6 eggs under her yesterday, and like the previous hen she seems to have settled on 4 of them to sit on, I'll give her till tomorrow before removing the discarded eggs. Fingers crossed we get as good, if not better result then the last batch.

Hi - where do you source the fertile eggs ... or do you grow your own?!
