Yep!Well today is day 18! My girl's been a very good broody Mama. She's my first - will the eggs hatch on day 21 just like in the incubator?

SUPER HATCH. AriaWell we have three babies on day 22!! Five more eggs in the nest, no pips. We'll let them go a few more days and see if any more hatch.
Thanks everyone, appreciate the kind words. Just wanted to let you all know that we have plenty of PP hatching eggs right now at Sunbird Farms if anyone needs any. Just shipped some to @rnott1 this week. Have a good one everybody! -BriceHave always had good results from Brice and his eggs. Several varieties.
The eggs were delivered yesterday and they are in good shape!Thanks everyone, appreciate the kind words. Just wanted to let you all know that we have plenty of PP hatching eggs right now at Sunbird Farms if anyone needs any. Just shipped some to @rnott1 this week. Have a good one everybody! -Brice
Mine did not go broody but they are not the same as the ones from Greenfire farms@ronott1 how are your eggs doing?
I just had another PP hen go broody Tuesday. Will be picking up more eggs on Sunday.
Just curious - we have 20 other hens (SLW, RIR, Australorpes, BSL, EE). Only one in three years has gone broody. This is the third PP to go broody in two months. Are they more prone to broodiness?
Also these chicks are growing faster than the bunch I incubated last year. Is that because mama has them out foraging in additional to their chick starter?
Thank you, Mine are from Sunbird, but breeding stock is from Greenfire. Can you breed broodiness into a line?Mine did not go broody but they are not the same as the ones from Greenfire farms
The roosters were all but one friendly
