Poor Mama Chicken. She is only protecting her babies! Sooooo sweet. Good mama.
Very informative and interesting, Alex.
Thanks for watching
THANKS FOR THE INFO!
Thanks for this info
What a great video! I have only had chickens for 3 years and this year I've got 4 more coming this May. I will have 6 hens and one rooster. I am just doing this as my hobby and its just me and hubby with kids all gone. I'm hoping that I will have some chicks since we got a rooster at some point. I will have 1 buff Orpington and 1 black astralope. I definitely will get some of those fake eggs when the time comes! I don't think I will ever get to 50 chickens but around here I won't have any problem giving chicks away lol!
This video help a lot
Thanks!
Thanks
Excellent! Never knew that, city girl that I am
Thanks for watching!
Those are some good hens
Thanks for watching!
U Big pimpin player .. thanks for the info 👍
Thank you! Are the eggs placed by you in the nests or do the chickens lay them there by themselves or other chickens? Thanks again!!!
They will usually sit on the eggs better if it’s their own eggs or another chickens, but you can place eggs yourself in a spot they usually lay and that will work as well. Thanks for watching
Nice video
Thanks for watching!
2:38 hehe, black mamba mama🖤
Interesting and we'll made video.
I have a question My hens get let out each day about 11.00am to roam the neigbourhood. We have 6 hens 3 of the have hatched eggs in the past. They originally were wild hens but now they live in our coup. We had one of the hens last year go broody under our house and hatch 11 babies and two others hatched eggs nearby. This year they start sitting but when I open the doors they all run our, even the 2 hens that usually go broody. I can't figure out what to do to keep them interested in staying on the eggs. I am sure 2 of them have started to go broody as they show all the signs, smelly poo, sitting on the eggs but they get upset if they other hens go walkabout without them. I am thinking I might have to make the enclosure bigger, taking in more of the yard just for the time they hens start going broody to stop they leaving for the day. Any suggestions would be great as we have to get the eggs in as we don't have a rooster so it is a bit difficult. Help????
at what age did your ausralorps go broody
i have some who are barely a year old and started laying.
They can go broody after 8 months but usually only go broody in the spring, and sometimes in the fall. Thanks for watching
@@Alexarmer thank you so much
Which breed does your white hen(sitting on eggs) belongs to?
I’m reasonably sure she is a sussex
Do you think this will work with Rhode Island Red hens?
Yes!
@@Alexarmer I never knew! Their breed is know for not going broody
Twice keeps eggs under her but after few hours she left and walking in yard
What happens if the mother hatches eggs and jumps down? Will the chicks follow her? And how might they get back up?
I usually move the mom and the chicks myself into a separate pen/small hen house, but sometimes they will all get down on their own. Thanks for watching
When I was a kid, our hens used to brood chicks out in the top of a three round bale high stack, and in the hay loft. Both were roughly ten feet up. When the chicks hatched, the mother bird would fly down, and the chicks would hurl themselves from the top like little fluffy hailstones showering out of the loft. They weigh so little that it doesn't hurt them at all. They just get up and toddle after mama.
Have bred Polish chickens for years. Never had one go broody. They are not suppose to go broody. That's a breed disqualification.
Best and most reliable broody hens and by far the best moms in the chicken world are the Aseels.
1:36 how heavy does ceramic eggs are?
They are a little lighter then real eggs but almost the same. Thanks for watching
I have a serama chicken it laid one egg but isn’t sitting on it can you help me out?
They will lay 6-12 eggs before they start sitting on them
Same
I have white Sussex wanting them to go broody are the good for that
Yes!
My hen is sitting on eggs few hours and than leave and walking outside
how much eggs will astralourrp lay andgwtbroody
Usually they like to lay a nest of 8-12 eggs and that breed goes broody often in the spring.
I need one of my chickens to go broody I have Americanas and and more will that breed work I'm getting chicks to put under her
I’ve had good success with that breed, just follow those steps and you should be fine. Thanks for watching!
What happens if your eggs get to cold will they die?
If they freeze then they will die, but when the hen is starting a nest it’s okay for the eggs to drop a bit in temp before she starts sitting on them.
Is it seasonal or only when they have so many eggs? Do the first eggs die because they aren't sitting on them for a couple days?
It is seasonal, usually only in the spring, but I’ve also seen it year around with some birds. The first eggs don’t die, as they can stay fertile for a while. Thanks for watching
@@Alexarmer Thank you.
@@Alexarmer since, my hen hatched 11 chicks! I learned that they don't start developing until she sits on them so the clutch usually all starts at the same time.
Can hens get broody in the summer?
@XenoRaptor-98765 any time of year. The trick is they need to see lots of eggs piling up. But once one hen goes broody, broodiness can spread like a virus to the other hens and they'll go broody on one or even zero eggs.
