Broody hen weight loss and weird poo.

Then why let her hatch?

Agreed. Seems like she is mad or depressed. If I sat on something for 3 weeks and had it taken away, I'd be pissed too.

She was my only broody hen and I needed a hatch right away. Unfortunately it turns out that she got a virus and died after being broody for 4 weeks. Please don’t judge me too hard, I know it was stupid to take her eggs and not treat her sickness. I am already very sad about her passing and I will never let this happen again.
