Hi AengusOg,

      do you want birds that are actually displaying broody behaviour or birds that are of a broody type such as sussex or silkie?

I was hoping for a hen which is broody, but it is a bit early in the season.

I'll probably pick something up at the Forfar sale in a fortnight. It's just that I have been offered some eggs to hatch.

Thanks

One of my friends told me her hen was broody so I've just given her some eggs to hatch. When I turned up there the hen was running around with all its mates!  :(
Think I've just wasted those eggs!

Also I noticed someone is advertising broodies in the Courier today
