Our BA is on day 18 on 5 eggs. The first few days we saw her get up and move around and it was at the same time so I have tried to get out at that time most days but I haven't seen her move since day 5 or so. A few times I think I saw a broody poop on the poop board but it has been several days since I have seen anything like it. Her comb is really pale, too. I have tried putting snacks in with her and I think she ate them a couple days ago, but yesterday when I checked an hour later she didn't eat the blackberries I gave her. The water and food are right outside her box, I even tried holding the water up to her yesterday and she completely ignored it. I thought I read day 18 is lock down so they won't get up after that. But if she hasn't moved in days is she going to be ok? Is it too late to pick her off the nest for a few minutes? I'm usually one to let nature takes it's course, but she has me nervous!
