My banty lays anywhere from 2-7 eggs a week. I check for an egg each day and remove it.
She's been sitting in her nest for the past 3 days. I removed her egg yesterday. Today, she hasn't laid an egg, but she's continued to sit in her nest as though she's laying on something. I keep taking her out, but she goes straight back in. I feel sorry for her.
We have only one rooster and I have never seen him mate with any of the chickens. He's still pretty young, so I don't know how old they are before they're even capable, but I honestly have never seen him mate.
Will they go broody on eggs that aren't even capable of hatching? What do I do? Will this pass?
