Broody Hen Pen

Lavender is broody.......again.

*sigh*

She is broody about 4 times a year.

I've decided to let her (try) to hatch some eggs.

Lavender in her broody box.

I don't have a rooster, so I bought some fertile eggs from a BYCer

They are silkie eggs. Hmmm, the poodles of the chicken world!

The broody hen pen.

It has a light that turns on a 8am and turns off at 8pm.

Food and water, although she's not very interested in eating.

And a cozy nest. She's still sitting on her golf balls, but soon there will be eggs!
