Chicks fully improved kienyeji 🐣, two days old.
Mother pure kienyeji.
She gave me 11 chicks out of 12 eggs 👏

I gave her 10 eggs from my improved kienyeji layers, and she added 2 more during brooding. Yes, they do that! Learned that after consulting.

Kienyeji mothers are the best incubators 💪

Caretaker task ❌

Taking care of 1-day old chicks ain't my thing 😅
Since I wanted to breed my own, I decided to use kienyeji hens to brood improved eggs from the farm.

They will take care of the chicks for 1 month, then I take over.
After 2 weeks the hens should be back to laying eggs again.

I eat the kienyeji eggs. I brood the improved ones.

Mimi siwezani na kuwekea kuku jiko.
Unless zinajua kujifunika blanket 😂

Who else is using hens as incubators?

Offgrid incubator 😄

One is pure kienyeji - our intended incubator
The other is improved kienyeji - our egg laying machines

Nothing beats waking up at the farm and finding your incubator ready to brood
and the egg laying machines queueing for delivery 😂
