Yeah, this did happen yesterday. Kinda sad. But I've crowded two other pens to get this pen down to just two hens!

Yes, it's just two of them in this pen. The non-broody has been adding eggs to the nest, but I take them out each day since they're not sharpie-marked. I did put in a dish of soaked pellets but they don't stay fresh for long. Good reminder on the oyster shell. It's not a big pen at all...

My broody has 7 fertile eggs ready to hatch this week but there’s another hen that shares her pen. What behavior can I expect from this hen when the chicks hatch? I don’t have another pen to put the extra hen in.
