Yeah! Broody's can be real interesting that way!
Well this morning was interesting!
I went in the coop and Momma hen (Henrietta, I seem to call the hens momma when they go broody.) was on the nest well during feeding time she decided it was time for her to get up and relieve herself. Which was perfectly fine, except the fact that it was the middle of egg laying time and my little RIR looves Henriettas nest so before I could get back Lil Red was on her nest...
While Henrietta was out in the run all fluffed up and drinking a ton of water. Well I was on a time limit, so I figured they will work it out. I was afraid Henrietta would go back up to her nest and sit on the one with golf balls. But nope when I got home Henrietta was on the right nest and lil Red was perfectly content.
I was so glad they worked it out! It really made me nervous....
