Hello, I have been keeping chickens for 5 years now. I kinda turned into a crazy chicken lady. Got some issues. I have my first ever broody. she will be a year old nest month, she is a barred rock. sitting on a clutch of 10 random eggs, including a Muscovy duck egg. it has been about 2 weeks since she started sitting, and i have no idea what i am doing. i have every intention of letting her raise the babies herself, but the duck egg threw me off and my flock is currently having some behavioral issues. i have 2 roos, the same age as the hen that's brooding that are involved in a power struggle. i don't know if that is the safest place for her to raise the chicks but i don't want to chance moving her, and i don't have enough time to build something to house the 1 roo and a handful of girls as the struggle seems to be over him having a lack of ladies to breed. any advice would be wonderful as i am currently freaking out, i have been waiting for this for ages, and i don't want anybody to smash the chicks, also pertinent infro would be that there are 3 female scovies and 3 male pekins housed with them.
