My favorite part of my day!!!

[@nicholaslake5937]

I used a broody light Brahma to hatch some duck eggs a few years ago......and yes those ducklings followed her around until they outgrew her.

[@drcdrdoct9864]

We just went through our first Broody experience. We had a 6 month old who had only been laying a few weeks go broody. Unbreakable. So we gave her 4 eggs and put her in our Tractor supply chicken coop that we don't use anymore. She hatched 3 out of 4. The last one wasn't fertilized. But So far she's been such a stellar mom. I couldn't be more pleased with the first results. Good luck on your eggs!

[@JK-jf7xq]

Don't be surprised if they go a little longer than 21 days. I was getting nervous/anxious with our broody hen last year. I did not check/disturb the eggs. Then, one day, the eggs started moving and cracking open. 9 out of 11 made it. 🙂

[@libertylady64]

I named my rooster Festus! He is the BEST rooster I have ever seen! He treats his girls like queens!

[@MalikaBourne]

I love it! 60 + years ago, our rooster was named, Festus as well. (Gund Smoke influences.)

[@Esther-1914]

@libertylady64 Festus is the bestest -- or bestus!😂

[@debrawooding9842]

Mine does a great job, too! He was a little bitty guy when I got him. He grew so fast and so big and has been a great care taker for his hens.

[@libertylady64]

@@debrawooding9842, My Festus came from my neighbor across the road. Festus seen my hens near the road and he crossed the road and never looked back! They tried to catch him but no way was he going back! This was last year around Christmas time and he has been my Christmas rooster ever since.

[@jennil7797]

Love the biology lesson! We just had that conversation with junior farmer here. He was impressed that chicks have daddies. He thought our roosters were just more ornamental hens.

[@debbieeads9151]

I love the way you love your farm animals. You honor God in the way you treat them❤

[@trishapomeroy9251]

I love a good ole broody hen. They are just extra special. I hope you get a successful hatch and Miss Clair Betty raises them up well.

[@AnniesHere-rn5bc]

I Love the Name Miss Claire Betty ❤- She’s a sweet ole gal 🙏🏻 May your family have a most blessed day 🇺🇸

[@starkeyfarmstead]

Love my Broody Hens ❤ they are the queens of our farmstead 🎉

[@krisatkinson1586]

My hen went broody around the time of that video. We gave her 7 eggs and 3 hatched! She’s raising her babies now! Thank you!

[@highroad3580]

This year I got too busy to deal with the broodies, so I hit up Tractor supply for pullet chicks. They were within a few days old and I put them under two different hens. The hens raised 7 of the 8 chicks and were very happy. One other chick was killed, but the remaining 6 pullets are almost ready to lay their first eggs. Great summary on broodies!

[@tanyawilliamson3968]

One of my hens went broody this spring. We don't currently have a rooster so we found her some likely fertile eggs and let her have at it. Out of the 8 we gave her only 4 hatched. Out of those we only have 1 left. Buts she's a keeper. Looks like I may have another headed the same way, so I'm heading out to get her some eggs.

[@lisastarr3436]

I love how sweet you are with her. ❤️

[@billnaha15]

Thank you Patara. We are in the cone for a hurricane here in Dunnellon FL. We are prepped and it will hit Tuesday or Wednesday. We pray it misses us but it looking Shakey right now. We have done all we can. Now the waiting. Pray for us.

[@suziq4512]

You are such a wonderful blessing! Thank you for all you do 🐓🐔🐣🐣🐣 the information is priceless ❤️ 😊!!

[@sbayles5593]

Great video. It's so funny that those of us who haven’t raised animals would think a female didn’t need a male to make babies. I know people who just had that aha moment in the last couple of years. Shows we don’t know nothing ‘bout birthing no babies.

[@cindymccutcheon231]

Thank you . We live in Guatemala. I have learned a lot about chickens with you. Especially candling. Blessings to you and Clare Betty

Good morning Patera. Wishing you a happy weekend.

[@terresapetersen7318]

You bring back "fond" memories of chickens from my childhood. I'm going to be getting chickens soon. We're allowed 5 hens in our small city.

[@stephanygates6491]

A master’s class quickie! Dense information is much appreciated.

[@imaginarycanary9956]

I never had success with my hens until we hot wired coop and got Little Jerry, our rooster. He is their protector and I’ve seen him gather them when a helicopter flew over head. Love love love my rooster.

[@ericaluke5448]

Talking about being successful! I know am blessed because if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Blossom Jefferson

[@jeffmatt7086]

The greatest regret is not trying and failing but it is not to trying at allFunny enough people aspire to emulate great investors and entrepreneurs, of our time but they only see their wins and achievements and they careless about their challenges and failures during multiple trials and the lesson it teaches

[@markjahson475]

You have to recognize you need an expert that understands how to read the market so you can avoid winning today and losing tomorrow. There's reason why experts like Mrs Blossom wins all the time,I was a bit skeptical but she Kept encouraging me to invest and it turn out very successful

[@jamescandason6954]

Who doesn't know Mrs blossom? It's been a year since i met her and I'm still making great profits under her guidance.

[@maxfade7106]

This is really helpful for my situation,please how can I get intouch with this exp Mrs Blossom?

[@barbaracampbell7747]

I love your smile 😁 Patera

[@CioCieMaMom]

I had a good laugh with your explanation of how baby chicks are created, thought it was common knowledge. I had 3 silkie hens all go broody this spring so I let them because I wanted more but this spring and summer was the worse with heat and humidity and makes the broody, hatching a little more difficult. It was so funny to see how one would go out to eat etc and the others would carefully pull all the eggs under her so I lost track of which eggs were which hen. Some did not make it due to the weather conditions but when they started to hatch I found one of those playhouses for little girls, put hardware cloth over the open areas and put a tote on the side with one of the hens and the babies and created a nursery. One hen said I did my job and I am done, but one of the hens turned out to be a great Mom. They are now in the run with the other hens and rooster but in a small fenced off area so they can be on the ground and see the other hens so they get used to each other. I will do it again next spring. Thanks for the video

[@janetjones7880]

agree totally...poultry for 40 yrs and always have a rooster and keep certain breeds just because they go broody often. Rather hen hatch and take care of chicks than me

[@vickiegveg]

Thank you ! Your face lights up when you teach 🙂 I hear ya. Head down, keep on swingin' .

We have 10 coops... Each has 10-15 hens and rooster for each coop. Mostly leg horn ... On an average day , we get 90-100 eggs. We also have 4 incubators that hold 40 eggs that we keep a week apart.... 4 brooding houses hold 40-160 chicks each , for 2 months

Wow! Leghorn hens are my favorites.

It's a must to have "Rooster bullets" for chicks in the egg........ and a good broody hen! How many times do we need to educate the "educated" city chaps? Keep up the good content friend, Happy Trails!!!

Happy Anniversary to you both!! We are about 20 minutes from The Tavern. Wish I had known, I would have tried to meet you both!!!!!

Had all hens, they would go broody but no rooster, got a rooster and their eggs are better and he's done his job. Good video.

I absolutely love a broody hen !!!!!!

[@shandra413]

We don’t have a rooster yet, we’re within city limits. We’re close to selling our house and getting out of the city! We DO have a broody hen which is interesting. She currently sits on the fake eggs in the nesting box. 😂 I cleaned the nesting boxes yesterday and sat the fake eggs in the grass next to my feet and she came and turned them and appeared to be counting them. ❤

[@MichellePhillipsNC]

Very helpful information as we are planning to add hens to our property. We live in town and aren’t planning to have a rooster, but if we end up with one in our group, we will see how it goes…

What do you feed them once the babies hatch? Does starter/grower hurt the mama hen? I have a standard cochin that hopefully will make a good mom. Love the these chick flicks!
