The Johnson Mini Farm

When the horses want to help with the chores…

We had a hen that was brooding on some eggs that never hatched so she kept jumping from one pile of eggs to another as she never got the cue to stop brooding. In a desperate attempt to save our eggs (she kept sitting on them making them bad) i bought a chick and placed it under her to see if she would accept it as her own. Sure enough it worked and she is now a happy (and very protective) momma to a little chick and i have my eggs back! 🐣

We have a new hen brooding so we cracked a few eggs to see if they were fertilized. We haven’t done this before so was a fun learning experience with the girls. Two of these eggs are from our chickens and one is a store bought egg. Can you find the fertilized vs non fertilized egg?
