I have a broody hen sitting on some fertile eggs that i got from a neighbor (I don't have a rooster). I had to split the single nesting box in thier tractor into two (kind of just a partial wood divider). The problem is she must keep reaching around the divider and rolling the other chickens eggs under her. Luckily I had the sense to mark the fertile ones (tiny dots with sharpie-is that ok?).
Will she eventually stop this or am I doomed to fish my eggs out from under a hot chicken butt for the next three weeks?
