Try Speckled Sussex if you want a GREAT broody hen. They are heirloom breed, cold tolerant, small light brown eggs - don’t lay worth a squat in the cold months. Very smart.
I like the breed very much, but am down to one. Due to the lack of winter eggs I am on the fence about starting more of them.
Interesting. The 10 BJG hens give us 2-4 extra large to jumbo eggs a day in winter; enough for our use.
I may try incubating some again. Last time, a 4’ gopher snake managed to get in & eat all seven of them at a bit over a week old.
