Co-broodys does not usually work. I did not catch these two girls sharing a nest until this nasty cold hit. I knew the one was in sitting on eggs then I realized one was missing. Dang if she wasn't in the same nest. I decided to leave them be until this awful cold moved out again. Now that the chicks are starting to hatch and its still bloody cold I've left them for now because if one leaves the nest the chicks climb under the other hen for warmth.
There is a moral to this story, don't get so busy you don't catch small things like this it could be disaterous. But I do have just Silkies and that does go a long way for why this is working out so far.
