Chicken stopped getting up to poop.

[CCowart07]

Our broody has hatched 4 chicks so far, and and today is actually day 21. We are concerned that she has not come off the nest to poop for the last three days? Is this normal... he have hand fed her some feed and water, as well has her chicks. She still has 5 eggs that should hatch within the next two days... she just doesn’t seem to want to move... should we make her get off until she poops, will the chicks be okay with out here for a few minutes?

She’s good.... when they are broody they tend to not get up and eat or drink for very long periods of time
