I think I broke my BO! She's been off the nest all afternoon. This was day 4, so maybe it wont take too long for your girl. BTW, I never did suspend the dog crate I had her in. It's such an old and dilapidated crate that I'm not sure it would have been safe. Besides, it wasn't like she was trying to nest in there. She spent all her time pacing, climbing onto her water dish, loudly complaining, and trying to find a way out of the crate. Good luck with your girl. Once her hormones settle back down, all will be forgiven.
I didn't suspend my dog crate for the same reasons and Babz is doing those same things! LOL Thanks for the encouragement. She's my favorite hen, but I'm not her favorite person at the moment!
