2 New behaviors-what the?!

[NewChickmom2016]

Best of luck to you! The key for me was to make sure the broody cage was elevated so that cool air got under and to her belly. I had it on bricks - at first she just laid down on the cage floor- same "broody" position. So I put the bricks on their side - more air- she climbed up on the little perch I had in the cage. Gave up trying to keep her belly (and imaginary eggs!) warm. I tried letting her out to see what she would do after a day- ran right to the coop- back in the breaker she went!
