First broody hen!
As you can imagine I am super excited!
Do I need to move her or can I just keep her in the coop?
She is on the one nest that we have, they only use the one and not the other one we have. I hope that they other girls will lay in the other one while she is on her eggs.
If I do move her inside, how much light, heat and all that does she need.
If I do need to move her it wont be a problem as I can just pick up the nest box with her in it.
Also, do I need to clean out her nest box? There is old hay and some droppings in there, so I was unsure if I needed to transfer her to a new clean nest.
Thanks!
