Broody hen

[Mother of All]

One of my girls is gone broody. the problem is she is on the floor of the coop. Do I leave her or do I but her and the eggs in the nesting box? if so how do I go abut moving her?

If she is happy there and not in the way of anything just leave her there. Mine all decided to go broody on the floor of th coop. If you do decide to move her do it at night when she is sleeping and if she is really broody she will stay were you put her.

If you have her setting on eggs, i would be leery of moving her. Cause she may just go back to 'HER" nest. and let the eggs get cold. That happened to me. I would just leave her, maybe partition her off from the others if they are bothering her, but if not, I would just leave her. mk

Thank you. I haven't seen anyone bother her and so I left her so far. I want so bad to see what or how many she has under her.
