This little hen Sat on eleven eggs and since they seemed fertile I left them all, she hatched out eleven chicks! I think that is the most I ever let one have.
- Hen with first hatch.

Were there 11 eggs in the nesting box, or did you place more under her?

She sat on eleven eggs, she was covering them well so I let her keep all eleven. I was hoping for 8 or 9 chicks but it was 11 so 100% hatch!

Not to be out done by her full sister, this little hen also just hatched eleven chicks, which was a surprise since I only let her have 9 or 10 eggs, she added extra in after lol.
- Another hen hatched eleven chicks.
She has already proven herself, she successfully raised chicks in March.
