I have two of these, now in their second year. Silkie mother was a brilliant broody, and at last, one of the daughters went broody - for five days. I have now retrieved the broody brahma banty from the sin bin, popped her into the prepared house on pot eggs & she's sitting tight. Eggs to the hatcher tomorrow, so I hope she has some chicks to foster by Wednesday. I've got three electric hens in use already, plus a foster broody.
