This is my broody hen, Buffy! I haven't left her any eggs, just the golf ball that stays in the laying box to remind the girls where they are supposed to lay.
This is how she looks if I touch her! She also makes a gurgling cackling noise to let me know she is displeased!
Ok, now I'll know a broody hen when I see one. I always feel a little pang of guilt when the hen sees me taking an egg out, but she barely blinks an eye!
Oh My! I thought I was the only one with a broody hen (x 3) this late in the year! We have 11 new little chicks.... and the heatlamp is already on in our little henhouse.
Love your blog, I think we must be sisters under the skin.
I teach 4 year olds during the school year. In my spare time(haha), I enjoy clogging, gardening, sewing, cake decorating, and old things! I am married to my high school sweetheart. We have two sons, ages 27 and 17!
We have 2 dogs (Honey and Lexi), a rabbit (Chewey),three cat (Samson, Rascal and Bella) and 7 chickens. The hens are Blossom, Buffy, Scarlet, and Matilda. I had on roo, Gottlieb. Then I let Buffy sit on some eggs and I ended up with 2 more roosters. My coop is called Cackleberry Cottage.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy your visit. I enjoy sharing all the wonderful "little things" that make life so special! Say hello and leave a comment!

It's probably PMS. I do love little red hens. Mimi
