So we have a small flock of four, two rir and two leghorns, they get along pretty well. One of our reds went broody this week and has started nesting in the thick redwood patch on our property, far from the coop. Its going to rain soon and i dont want to leave her there. Were thinking about moving her eggs into one of our coops. Were not sure weather or not we want chicks yet. We doubt that her nest is fertile unless she snuck off and mated but we dont know of any roosters near enough for that. We might give her a couple fertile eggs and see how she does. Ive dealt with a broody hen raising chicks but never had one go off and seperate herself so much. Should we leave her? Should we move her? I dont want a coyote to get her! Thanks!
