Hello everyone so I have a hen called snowball and she is broody.
She's been puffing herself up and growling at me when I touch her.
She's in a Bush near my house and in a very vulnerable place how can I move her to a better place without making her not sit?
Please feel free to ask any questions at all.
Oh and another thing she has no eggs underneath her.

Is she staying there most the day and all night...for how long?
Just move her to a safe place, give her a nest with fake eggs and a day or two to settle down, either she'll stay broody or she won't.
 
She's staying there All day and all night only occasionally getting off in the daytime to have some food and drink.
It's funny that she's broody because she's one of my chicks that I my broody hen hatched last year.
I'll try what you said.
 
I've moved her to a hen hut and bought her some crested cream legbar eggs she has them now.Is there anything else I should do?
