A brood patch is a bare or featherless area on a bird’s belly. This bare patch is well supplied with blood vessels that help transfer body heat onto the eggs during incubation. Most birds do but they do begin to form before egg laying as the hormonal processes related to egg laying also play a role in loosening the down that is on the brood patch area
