Need advice....
I have my first broody! We found her sitting on the pot a couple nights ago and thought she was sick, egg-bound, etc. (our girls lay in large flower pots in the coop)
I'm planning on taking her out today and putting her in an extra large dog crate that we have. What else do I need to do? Do I need to isolate her in the garage, put her out in the shade while the other girls free range, leave the crate in the coop---is there an ideal place to put her while we keep her off the nest?
Is there anything else special that I need to do with her? Thanks in advance!!!
P.S. I don't have any fertile eggs for her to sit on....
