Broody or not?

[seminolewind]

My Jersey Giant has been standing by herself in the rain , she sits on the nest for a couple hours. She was sitting in the nest today, and kept grabbing beakfuls of shavings and throwing them on her back. What's the deal?

I'm not sure if she's broody or not...sometimes our girls will take hours to lay an egg, i've even seen Milly dozing off whilst she's on the nest

Usually after they've finished laying, they will pick up straw in their beak and toss it over their back, then go down into the coop and yell the 'Big Egg' call
