    My bantie hen is sitting on her eggs and I don't have a rooster.

    I need some advice on how to re-integrate her into the flock. I really don't want to remove her and cause permanent psychological damage to the poor thing. Do I just let her sit on them? She's been sitting on them for a few days now. I doubt if she's been eating? Thanks.

    I had 7 girls untill a few days ago. Three of them are younger chickens and 4 older chickens about 3 years old. I doubt that they are laying. But they're my daughters pets.
