hi! i am new to having chickens. i have 2 young adult barred rocks i got from a guy nearby at about 4-5 months, just ready to start laying. they are probably about 7-8months now and one of them has gone broody!!!!
i would like a broody hen because i am planning on raising chicks eventually but......... i don't want her broody yet!
i was wondering... if i were to break her of her broody habit now, would she become broody again later? or once she is broken, will she stay broken??

thanks!
 
She will (probably) go broody again. Every chicken is different, though, so when she'll go broody again is anybody's guess.

My barred rock has never gone broody, but I have a silkie and a cochin I have to break every few months and they always go broody again.
