Can this hen brood again now?

[Johnchickens2]

My lovely serama hen has just finished "mothering" her clutch of 6 chicks (2 boys, 4 girls). Now, she began laying again and I was wondering - should I collect her eggs, or let her have another brood cycle? I think I should collect the eggs, mainly because of the season - it's October now and I'm not sure it's a good idea to have chicks in the winter, and secondly - it might damage her health. What do you think?? I really want her to be a mother again - it was such a wonderful adventure for her and for us

I think you should start collecting her eggs since its october.

You might as well collect the eggs, letting the egg stay won't make her broody, plus its too late in the year.

Wait until next spring which is the right season.

It sure is tempting to let them hatch their eggs, but it's best to wait until spring
