Follow up to my Red Star that went broody. About 29 days ago she wouldn't leave the nest, so I set her and 28 days later she has started hatching the eggs I put her on.
She isn't sitting on eggs. She just walks around doing the momma hen thing. I just thought it was unusual for Red Star to go broody. Thanks for the advice
I have a Red Star hen that has been acting broody for two weeks. I have 21 hens that are 8 months old and she is the only one acting like this. I get 20 eggs a day so I know she must not be laying . She doesn't sit on the nest just walks around acting like a momma hen takeing care of baby...
