3 Broodies OH MY!

[16 paws]

I have a small coop with 6 Seramas, one roo and 5 hens. Three hens are broody. Only have room to separate one. Two hens are in the nest box side by side and one is in a dog crate in the run. Anyone have ideas on what to do with them? Thanks in advance....

Pick the one highest in the pecking order as they will help protect the chicks from the other chickens the best. You can break the other twos broody ness in a broody cage. make sure you put the mother where the other chickens can still see her, that will help her keep her place in the pecking order.

It sounds like you might not have room for extra birds. Why not just break the broodies?
