I would wait 7-10 days and candle. Otherwise, there's nothing to do if she's happy siting on them. I also keep broodys separate from the flock...the other hens will try to lay their eggs on her nest and might break the eggs. Also, if she's separated now, you won't have to do it later when the eggs hatch. She'll get off the nest only a couple of times to eat and poo...and boy, will she poo. No one warned me about broody poo...consider yourself warned! Good luck!
Exactly! x2
Merry Christmas everyone, hope all goes well and as planned.
