Ou...Jen -- Funny, we were just talking about this. Our chickens are just starting to lay, so their day of reckoning is a couple years off. Not looking forward to it, but committed to doing it.<br /><br />I'm curious about the idea of letting broody hens rear the next batch of chicks.

If the hens aren't broody, will the presence of chicks set off their maternal instincts?Tamar@StarvingofftheLandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807390963622315155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884610467022224157.post-5902620883086870562009-10-16T07:47:03.656-07:002009-10-16T07:47:03.656-07:00Great post Jen!

I commend you for keeping the dispatching out of the public limelight. Much more respectful to all parties. <br /><br />As for the firewood, yea my sentiments exactly!Terry Scovillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921175577588776380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884610467022224157.post-18629179562744791082009-10-16T06:12:26.825-07:002009-10-16T06:12:26.825-07:00I was wondering how you got on today with the chic...I was wondering how you got on today with the chickens.
