My Easter egger will go into the nest box, dig a nest, then come back out and try to make a nest elswhere. Is this normal? I am really worried...
 
My easter egger does that sometimes in Spring. I think it's just broodiness. Do you have a rooster? If you do, you might get chicks.
 
We had a few roosters up until about July. What's really weird is that if i bring her out, she goes back into the coop 5 minutes later. Does yours do this?
 
She just laid the egg, and is now sitting on it. So now, I have my first broody hen I guess...

I don't know much about this subject. Broodiness doesn't mean she'll have chicks, though. It just means she wants them ;)
