Uncooperative Hen is Unpopular!
She went broody as they begin to around this time of the year, and sat on eight eggs. However unbeknown to me she was allowing a good friend to lay in the nest as well – maybe more than one good friend. And when the stack of eggs that she was sitting on become uncomfortable she simply got off and walked away leaving 24 eggs to chill and die. The piglets are benefitting from this but I’m not and I’m irked by it. !@#$% Hens!
