Breaking a broody hen

[Sheila378]

I posted this question when I first got on backyard chickens and am now posting in this also. I am currently trying to break my broody by keeping her in broody jail a few days. She hatched chicks in April and decided she wanted more but I had 4 hens counting her go broody in may and June also. They have raised their babies and I don’t need any more chicks. I hope this works. This is my broody and her name is beauty

I have used the broody jail method with some success. But, I have just as much success with just taking them off the nest and taking the eggs away while they fussed. I will sit them down in front of food and water and they will usually eat a little. I have to do it about 3 days, but it takes just as long doing the jail method, and this method isn't nearly involved.
