I think I understand what your going though. I had like 5 broodies at one time this summer. They kept swapping nests so I tried to keeep the eggs that would hatch sooner under the girls that had been sitting the longest. Onne of them was a Delaware and others were White Jersey giants and an EE. Well one WJG and the De sat at roughly the same time so when a chick started to hatched my De Charlotte was to be the proud momma. Well that didn't go well at all. She ripped the shell open and pulled the baby out and killed it. I knew then she wasn't going to be a good momma. I took all the eggs left under her and threw her out of the nest. (Not throw but pushed her out) I think she knew she didn't want to sit any longer cause she went back to her chicken duties. I was sad but I hope she never goes broody again for that reason. I just had an Ee chicken and a red star broody and they wanted to share a nest. I kept separating them but they kept pulling their eggs in the same box. Unfortunately all the eggs got cracked by all this moving and fighting over. So I went to buy a couple chicks for them. I tried at nighttime to put them under the EE and she pecked them. So I put her back in the other coop and brought my red star Momma over and she started clucking as soon as she heard the babies. She was my 1st broody last year and very good Momma that is why the name momma stayed because she is a truely good mom.
I sure hope it works out for you and your broody. I think I may try to break Goldie from being broody. It may not happen like it happened here but be leary of it. Or just maybe give her a couple eggs to hatch, but mark them if she stays in with the other chickens.
Good luck and sorry I didn't see ur original thread. I broke my foot so have had other things going on here, but I sure hope it goes well.
