Hi everyone! One of my hens that is 8 months old seems to be broody. Whenever I open the egg box she is always there sitting in an egg box and then she raises her feathers and hisses at me. The weird thing is, is that she does not peck me when I put my hand by her. She also lets me push her out of the nest and then returns back to her nest in about 5 minutes or so after she ate some food and drank some water. She has not been laying eggs and I have noticed that she has missing feathers on her butt. I am worried for her and I do not know what is wrong! Please let me know if you think she is just broody or if she has some disease. I will post a picture if that helps! Thanks
