I have what I am hoping is my first broody hen, this is only her second day, but all the signs are there. Plucked breast feathers, staying on nest, does a lot of cooing- but isnt grumpy, fluffed up feathers. So the question I have is that I took her out of the box to eat and drink and poop (all she did was eat some scrambled eggs from this mornings bfast) but she would not stand up or walk, she just sat like shes been sitting on her nest the past couple of days. I am wondering if this is normal or not? Maybe she isnt broody but has something else going on with her? I did a feel of her undersides to see if I could feel an egg stuck or something and didnt feel anything.
Any advice or knowledge on the matter would be wonderful!
