Help! We have had a broody Cochin who will not be broken of her broodyness no matter what we do. I have separated all out chickens from their run and coop for a full day multiple times (we have a chicken tent for ranging) We have nudged her off her best multiple times for days, but after a few minutes she always hops back on. I have also dunked her in cold water and even left her in cool water for a few minutes then put her back in the run to cool her temp.... Didn't work. What else can we do! We don't have enough space to let her hatch out chicks since we just got new chicks that are about 4 weeks old now (too late for adopting?)
Any advice would be amazing! We don't want to have to put her in a metal cage but it's looking like that's our only option!
