It Takes A Village | 4 Hens and 1 Duck | Hatching Eggs | Broody Birds | North Texas Homestead
What is a Broody Hen?
A hen that fluffs up, has attitude, and whose body temp raises!
A hen that insists on sitting on the eggs you want to collect.
A hen who is caught rolling eggs and even picking eggs up from other nests!
This is a broody hen.
One who insists on having Chicks! :)
Left to her own devices, she will hatch as many as she can, to fulfill that want for being a mother.
But sometimes, one broody bird turns into 6 🤣
That was our case!
