I have a hen who has started being Broody for about a week now. I had marked all four of the eggs that she was laying on so that way, I would know which eggs needed to stay in her box. She had been doing really good and I keep water and feed for her, in her own little box. But I went outside...
Saturday morning I had a chick get stuck on one of those sticky mouse traps. Luckily I was able to get her off but not before the chick had pulled multiple feathers out of her chest and having to clip off some feathers from its wings due to the amount of glue that wouldn’t come off. She was...
