One of my hens ( Bantam) has gone what I believe to be - Broody. Ok - it’s spring, I’ll deal with it.
Decision was made to let her hatch out. OK.
She’s in nest 90% of the day & night - only comes out fo about 15 min. In middle of day.
She eats, drinks, poops, preens, etc.
she’s been doing this for 5/6 days. Has total of 4 eggs. 2 of hers, &
she has stolen 2 eggs from her room mates. - which makes me think she’s serious. OK
BUT - over last 3 days after having her afternoon break - she gets into the nest box next to where she was
an hour ago. No eggs in this box !
I have so much to learn - Ideas ???
Thanks
