I have a broody that I am going to give some hatching eggs to.
My question is can I move her to a more secure area away from the others hens? And if so should move her before or after I give her the eggs?
Where she is now is too high and I am sure not safe for chicks as they could fall out.
Could I break her brooding if I move her? I have eggs coming on Tuesday so want her to brood.
Also if I do move her and she keeps returning to the same nest, is there anything can do to keep her in the new nest?
