Hello , I use broody's and incubator . They both have pro's and con's , but I am leaning towards the inc . Sometimes its an long wait for a broody , and when she does hatch them , the chicks are a little wilder . Inc chicks are much tamer and easier to handle . This year the power went out for 26hrs , and 6 chicks hatched out of 15 , better than nothing eh . I thing the broodys will be going .
