Hen has been broody for a long time and has changed personalities

[Lunie]

I have 4 hens and they all usually act the same. Hated being picked up and being around people unless for food and would always stay together. A few months back a hen went broody and she has changed. She doesnt mind being picked up and held and wants to be around people all the time. I closed her out of the coop so she might stop being broody but its still worrying to me since she doesnt go around the others.

Here's an excellent article on managing a broody: https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...rst-turkey-strut-to-weaning-the-chicks.76878/

I have had many broody hens in my coop, after every hatch they seem to become gentle and little cuddle bugs.
