I was looking for ages, EVERYWHERE and couldn't find her then as i shut the coop in the evening i turned round and she was there in a little cove in the wall, and she's broody!! I'm so exited she is my first broody hen!!
I didn't like the thought of her being out on her own (out for 3 nights) so i thought i would bring her in tonight but this morning my two little 5week old chicks where jumping all over her so i thought i would move her, i was a bit nervous about doing it but it went well! I got Ronnie in a cat box then i managed to get the nest and the eggs in an old cat basket and put them in the store room, i was worried she wouldn't sit back on them so i left her for about an hour then checked and she was sitting back on them. pheww!!
She has 11eggs and i cannot wait until they hatch (if they do)!!
Its so exiting, they are due on the 23.
Ronnie on her 11eggs, now happy indoors! |
