Update on my broody. For the last 3 to 4 days I have moved the hen out of the nesting box and remove all eggs 3 to 4 times a day and I think this may have done it. She's been out in the run with the others most of the day, once in awhile I hear her broody chatter but is still out and about with...

Thanks.

If she is still laying which she must be ( just 1 egg under her, if she gets up they rollaway) is this just the beginning of being broody? If she never gets a clutch of eggs would that break her being broody?

She is on the nest most of the day but never the same nestbox from day to day. Not sure at night ,I will have to check tonight.

I will need to break her of her broodiness.

Chicks would be fun but my coop is to it's bird limit as of now.

I will keep this in mind, good idea.

1 of my Barred Rocks is broody I believe, I never see her out in the run eating or drinking, the coop does have food and water. Since I have a roll out nest box she only ever has 1 egg under her and when she gets up that one rolls out. My ? is should I do anything or just let her be?
