Ahh, our one and only Welsummer. She was the last to lay, and is almost endlessly broody. We are really struggling with the poor thing who wants nothing more than to hatch something. We live in Seattle and have no roos, no chick hatching can occur here. I would love some advice about this. We know how to break her of it, it takes about 2 weeks to break her and for her to start laying again. And then about 2 weeks later she is back at it. I would love to know if there is something I can do differently to help her stop doing this. Wondering if loaning her to a farm to let her run her course with a clutch of eggs? Help! This is our first year with Chickens, I am a little lost on this one. But the poor girl is becoming more hassle than she is worth. Horrible to say.
