Discussion on Natural Incubation

We had a discussion about natural incubation this past Saturday (May 14, 2016) at Claborn Farms.

Some of the main topics that we discussed were:

  • What is “broodiness”? (definition of terms)
  • How to break a hen of broodiness
  • Advantages of natural incubation and brooding
  • Disadvantages of natural incubation and brooding
  • Behavior of broody hens
  • How to go about it?
  • Housing for broody hens
  • Introducing the hen and chicks back into the main flock
  • Various things related to chicken care and health

Let us know if you would like to join us for other discussions in the future.
