    I need some good broody hen breeds

    Some more info would be very helpful. What are your overall goals? Silkies are widely known as good and reliable broodies, but they wouldn’t be the first choice for someone trying to establish a free range survival population. Are you interested in bantams, or Large Fowl? What are your keeping...

    Are they female?

    Dumpling is for sure a cockerel. Peep looks like a pullet so far, but you could update in a few weeks. Tail is rather irrelevant until much later. First gender specific feathers start at around 12 weeks of age, and are found on the hackles and saddle areas (neck and back feathers respectively)

    Feed Store Bantam Bin ID Needed

    Oh, I’m very sorry it didn’t work out. After the hen has left the nest chances of chick adoption drop quite a bit. Was she aggressive with her pecks and trying to get away from them?

    That depends on the hen. If they reject, most don’t do it very calmly. Some take it as far as killing the chicks, others peck until the chicks get away, others will just get up and leave. You know better than us what your hen might do, since you know her better. Not even you will no for sure...

    Feed Store Bantam Bin ID Needed

    Feather legged chick one, is a buff Cochin bantam/Pekin. Feather legged chick three, is a Partridge Cochin Bantam/Pekin. Feather legged chick four is a Mille Fleur D’Uccles. Feather legged chick five looks like a frizzled black Cochin Bantam to me. That curl in its feathers is the frizzle...

    I think your guess is correct:)

    Sounds good. Having eggs in the nest might encourage her to sit, if she’s already thinking about it. Her having broody history will also help. Hope it works out, please keep us updated!

    Looking for advice

    There was recently another poster on here in a similar situation. If she really is going broody, then she has given you a great opportunity to add to the flock of one! Letting her raise chicks on her own is likely to be much smoother in terms of integration, as opposed to introducing juveniles...

    On second thought, Clumbers are quite heavy. Let’s settle on fat cocker :p

    Well, Google says that 70lbs is about 31kg. That was the male. So the girl would have been around the 20-15kg mark. For reference, my Cavalier is around 8kg. So a boxer the size of two cavaliers, or a chunky Clumber :eek:

    Gorgeous girl! Sad she didn’t work out for you. The backyard breeders are doing such an injustice to their own dogs:hmm. I might be back to change the love reaction to a shocked reaction, after I’m done googling what that weight is in kg :oops:

    I haven’t been on this thread in a while, and so I try not to bother too much when I do peak occasionally, but that’s hilarious :lol:
