Hey Y'all, I have a question, I have a Royal Palm hen that has not yet layed her first egg but yesterday she got on the nest and I was thinking she was going in to lay a egg but she was in there for hours. well she never came out of the box and she was puffing her self up at me when I tried to collect eggs that were under her so I made sure she was secure for the night, well this morning I went and checked on her if she was ready to come out of the box and she is still puffing herself up so my question is... Can a hen that has not layed a egg yet become broody, and if not is she having trouble laying a egg is there anything I should do to help her?
