Hey! I’m new on hatching and incubating eggs and decided to do it naturally and let a broody hen sit on them, we haven’t gotten a hen to go broody yet but before we do is there anything I should know? (Looking for advice from experienced people)

*Ive only ever bought chicks from the store, but now we have a couple roos that are very handsome and I think would make beautiful babies*

I’m also planning on doing a hatch along one we get going, so if anyone wants to tune into that when it happens
