All of the sudden my Welsummer began sitting on all the eggs within the nesting box. I think it was because I didn't collect for two days so she became broody. Read up on some material and began removing her from the box as well as all the eggs daily. Started enticing her with food outside the coupe and in a couple of days noticed that she no longer hangs out in nesting box but prefers to graze in the yard BUT she continues to sleep in the nesting boxes instead of her roosting area and now all my other chickens sleep on the ground outside in the larger coupe. Do you think she could still be broody if only for hours (night time). I lost 4 of my other chickens prior to these and they slept up high. How do I get these to do the same thing? AND when will my Welsummer begin laying eggs again?
