Thank you.

Thank you. I like the idea of putting her outside in the garden and using the kennel. I have 10 other chickens and it would have been difficult keeping her out of the nesting boxes. I'll giver it a try. Thank you for the information

Thank you for the information. She has only been broody for 6 days. The feather loss is new to me and I was concerned she was sick, but she doesn't appear ill. I will continue to remove her from the nesting box and make her go outside. Thank you! :-}

My Black Jersey Giant is 10 months old and has gone broody. I noticed today that all of her chest hair is gone. There is no redness, open sores, no mites and it doesn't seem to bother her. I make her get up tp eat and drink but she returns to the nesting box within 10 minutes. Is this normal...

Thank you to all who responded to my question regarding chicken feathers. I guess only time will tell. She's the friendliest of the group always first to check out my hand. She's not sick, she's eating & drinking. Maybe she's just a late bloomer! :-}

Thank you for your help. My hen will stand and move aside, then find another spot to sit in. I don't believe she's trying to nest. I washed her vent this morning with warm water and she now appears to be moving around the yard a little bit more. She just seems a little lethargic.

My 10 month old Wyandotte hen started sitting in one place and not wanting to move, she doesn't appear to be eating and she didn't get up on the roost last night. She did lay an egg yesterday but not in her nesting box. I'm not sure what is wrong with her. Can anyone help?
