I have a 17 month old Buff Orpington that has went broody. I noticed it couple days ago. The first day I would just open the back door the nesting box and she would hop out and go back to running around the yard for a couple hours, and then ended up sleeping in the nesting box all night. The second it was the same but that evening I got her out of the nesting box and placed her on a roost bar where she stayed all night. Yesterday she almost refused to leave the nest box and I had to really pull her out. I went ahead at that point and placed a small kennel in the run elevated with a wire floor and provide food and water. That is were she stayed yesterday evening and night. Today when I let the others out to free range I left her in the kennel for a couple additional hours then let her out. So far it has been 3 hours and she has not went back to the nesting box but has been digging and staying in a single spot in her favorite flower bed. Is this behavior in the flower beds ok since she is staying away from the coop and nesting boxes? Or is this something that needs addressed by returning her to the kennel? Thanks again for any advice.
