If they don’t get knocked up by a male chicken, then how do they get pregnant?
Well if it doesn’t happen as a result of a male chicken it must be aliens or a chicken sperm bank
well first of all Chickens can lay non fertilized eggs! as well as fertilized ones.
You have to have a rooster to get fertilized ones which will end up in hatching into chicks.
A rooster mounts the chicken and deposits his sperm in her coquil (sp?) this then allows her to have fertilized eggs for a week.
hope this helps
Well..
You have to at least have a boy and a girl chicken,
If you want chicks. It will lay an egg put it in your incubator, Then the chicken will eventually grow bigger in the egg, then hatch.
There has to be a rooster for the hen to lay fertilized eggs; the kind that will hatch baby chicks. If you don’t have a rooster you will get unfertilized eggs; the kind we eat.
They do get knocked up, just like we do. My father has always had a chicken farm since I was born (handed down from my Grandfather). The male chickens "member" looks more like a curly fry than anything.
eww
Well, when a rooster & a chicken love each other very much, they do it.
A hen will lay an egg at least every other day starting at about three months of age, but the eggs will only yield chicks if the hen mates with a rooster. You obviously must have a male and female chicken, a rooster and a hen. The actual act of "baby making" is pretty violent and kind of frightening if you actually like your hens. The rooster will grab the neck of the hen and push her into the dirt so that she cannot move. He will then insert his guy parts into her vent (cloaca) which is the hens intestinal, reproductive, and urinary tract.
The sperms’ trip may take a week or more, they swim through the hen’s shell gland, then a narrowing in her reproductive tract called the isthmus, followed by the magnum and the infundibulum. There, they await the arrival of eggs in the process of forming. A hen’s eggs begin as yolks in the ovary, and once released they pass into the infundibulum, a funnel-shaped organ where the sperm are waiting. There they are fertilized, and pass out of the chicken the same way the sperm entered, in reverse.
The egg white gathers around the yolk in the magnum. In the isthmus, the shell membranes are laid down. The shell forms and hardens in the shell gland, and the egg is ready to be laid. Most hens won’t lay eggs in the evening, so if a hen’s egg is ready then, she will likely hold it until morning. Once she does lay, she’s ready to start forming a new egg. After mating, enough sperm may remain in the hen to fertilize her eggs for a week or more.
