I have 1 chicken that stays in her nest. I know she is broody but she has been like that for about 35 days or more. We take her out of nest whenever we can and she will walk around eat and drink. She is not laying eggs. What else can we do?
 
Best to place her in a crate, slightly raised off the ground (with food and water) for 3-4 days. The sooner you break her broodinesd, the better as she will not have eaten/drank as much as normal and this can cause a loss in condition
