My EE, Maddie, became broody today, December 13. Should I let her hatch out a couple eggs or should I wait until the time of the year is better?
Thanks

Also, she is only sitting on one egg right now but my other hens should lay eggs again tomorow. Could I put those under her as well? Or is a day's difference too much?
 
depends on the weather in your area, i have a broody sitting right now and it gets down just down below 0 outside, i do have a heat lamp in the coop shes in though, she shouldnt have any problems, but if she does i also have a large cage i can put in a heated area of my barn.
