Well. I have a turkey hen and a muscovy hen 'trying' to share the same nest of 20~ eggs. It was supposed to be 12 eggs under the turkey but the muscovy decided to mix things up a bit. Though the egg count is going up, there's also evidence of broken eggs and it's just getting crazy. My turkey *might* move, but I doubt it. She *was* sitting a nest in another nest box, but the one she's in now is her favorite and she already hatched a clutch in there this year. She defected from her new nest into this box recently so I just let her settle in. How difficult are moscovys about moving? Tips for moving a hen without breaking her or breaking eggs? Thanks!
