Only if you give me silkie eggs lol

I have 2 now. They are "broody for the day" as I call it now. Only Dolly is committed.

I hope so too. I need to find my candler but my small two legged heathens played with it. No telling where they put it. Butt heads.

Like today. Big Ole egg. Def was not there before. Might have a double yolk. I didn't see one when I candled. Dolly is down to five eggs btw. I saw darkness but didn't see movement. My candler is missing so had to use the rinky dink one on the incubator.

Btw btw....if Dolly gets off her eggs....and it's 85 here WITHOUT heat index (it's actually closer to 90-95 most days) then they should be okay for awhile right? She is never off more then 30 minutes and that's in the middle of the day. Plus someone always goes and sits on the eggs (I assume to...

Sounds like a mess! Lol. Hope you find some peace in that chaos you have over there. ❤️

Btw how long can eggs just relax without a broody on top before they are in danger? I have a chicken who keeps being broody but only for a few hours each day. I take the eggs after she refuses to come back. Like is perched on top of the run with everyone else sleeping.

Yeah. I don't want the little floofs getting hurt. So brooder duplex it is! Lol. Guess we will wait to see how Dolly's eggs do!

And if I wait a week will she take them if they are small? Or is it other factors to why she wouldnt?

Yes. They need to come out the incubator either today or tomorrow. Def by tomorrow as the older 3 will be on day 3.

Since they are tiny she will accept them anyways?

And Nugget has fuzz down the legs. So the mom had fuzz down the legs. Maybe Luna was it's mom! Luna has yellow dragon like fert and is a dark brahma. Ooooo. Guess we will see.

Yeah. I expect some "Hey there you're new" pecks lol. I just want the Seramas to be protected. I do have Nugget who is double their size. I think Kithara is the dad bc of the legs. They go from grey to orange. Kithara is the only orange legged one I have. Everyone else is gray or pink or pale...

Oh! And I have a decent size cat litter box with a lid. Can always put her in there with the eggs. It's a bit deep though. Thoughts? The ducks are about 8 to 10 weeks old as well. They are Jumbo Pekins.

I can always finish her eggs in the incubator? Idk. I just thought they'd do well with a broody. I only have one broody though so it's either hope she takes the Seramas, or put them in my brooder tote duplex. (Which now has a camera and two lids)

I do have a teenager pen. The chicks in that area are roughly around 8 to 10 weeks old. Idk the exact age off the top of my head. Would they be fine in there?

It's about 2 weeks in I believe. Her eggs are due to hatch in about a weeks time (28th). I want to go candle them tonight. One ended up busting and was empty. I assume it was a clear bc there was no body. I will probably candle then tonight. Should I build a ramp as well. Nesting boxes are about...

At least they hatched. Granted it was a bit forceful. Maybe the other chicks were too rough?

Is it possible for Dolly Parton to raise the Seramas? Would that be a good idea?

@WoDia I'm sorry to say Filigree didn't make it. They went to sleep and never woke back up. ❤️
