  1. We're going to hatch a clutch of eggs in the hopes of getting a couple of extra hens to share the garden with our current old girl... we should have some fertile eggs lined up from a friend, we are hoping to just let our exisitng hen go broody and hatch them out for us.... but i was wondering how long it'd be until she started laying again...? and are there any common problems to look out for using this method to hatch some chicks...? Thanks BB
