Tina Manley OFFERED WITH A BIG HEART! :
Subject: [Leica] IMGS: Broody Hen


> PESO:
>
> One of our Golden Comet hens has been broody for about a month, sitting
> faithfully on her eggs 24 hours a day, but, evidently Rooster Cogburn is 
> not
> doing his job.  Her eggs never hatched.  So I went to the farmers' supply
> and bought 6 chicks that we slipped under the hen at night.  She accepted
> them right away and is so proud of herself:
