1) 6 month old Buff Orpington
2) Won’t leave egg box, frequently puffing/ruffling feathers when removed, comb getting purple tinge
3) She‘s been attempting to sit on eggs (no rooster) for 2 weeks, but just today won’t leave the coop and developed the purple
4) no other birds are showing signs of anything
5) no injury
6). Low eating/drinking
7) normal poop
9) I’ve been tossing her out of the egg box and putting her near food and water
10) the last two weeks it has been very hot, mid 90s

My Buff O is a broody monster too. She can do this for weeks even with no eggs. When she gets this demented I stick her in a cage in the house on a cool tile floor with water and food. Repeat multiple times until the insanity stops. The comb looks ok.

That’s normal for a broody hen
