I have a problem of my brooding hen moving from nest to nest, I have a 3 nest setup, she will stay in one for awhile, then move to another, here is what I think, the other non broody hens lay eggs in the others and so she hops onto those and so on, soooo should I make the other 2 nest unavailable? (Yes I ahve other nests that are 12 foot across the hen house the others can use), that seems like a fix, any ideas? Please help!
 
I would at least try it. If she isn't sitting right then there is a good chance they won't hatch anyways but it doesn't hurt to try. Good luck
