My hen had been broody for 4 days sitting in her regular nesting box on two infertile eggs. She came out for water in this 95 degree weather once a day and a dust bath and ran back in to get back to her nest.
I got some fertile eggs, set up a brooding area for her to be separated, moved her last night and she just will not get back on her nest. She can still see the flock so she walks to fence trying to get back with them. Give it more time? It's been about 12 hours now. Is there anything I can do? Or did I just accidentally break her broodiness by moving her?
