Broody Hen is pacing enclosure, won’t sit on eggs

[Audrey Watson]

So i had a hen go sit on eggs in the nesting box for multiple days, concluded she was broody. Put her in a separate enclosure with some golf balls, and she won’t sit and is pacing and trying to get out. How can I help her adjust to the new space?

She may not want to be broody anymore I had one sit for 8 days and decided not to sit any more

If you have food and water in their give her a few hours and if she doesn’t want to sit there’s not much you can do sorry,

Can she see the rest of the flock?
I assume she has food and water in her enclosure?
Give her a day or two.
If she doesn't settle back onto the nest, her broodiness has been broken.
