A broody isn't interested in drinking much

[Johnchickens2]

One of my broody hens takes a daily break, she eats, poops and takes a bath. But as for drinking... she barely drinks. And it's quite hot here! On her break today, for example, she ate a hard boiled egg (a whole yolk and a bit of the egg white) and returned to her nest. I also placed a bowl with fresh water next to her nesting area but she wasn't interested in it. Is it normal?? Even humans drink a lot after eating an hard boiled egg!!

Sounds as if she is doing fine. She will drink when necessary.
