Hello
My hen started being broody for a few days now, so I’ve given her an egg yesterday for her to keep.
Today, she didn’t get out of her nest all day. So I had to force her out for some time (she’s trying to come back every time), push her beak in the water for her to drink, and literally spill the grains for her to eat as my other hand is keeping her beak open because she won’t eat.
Also, all her feathers are "standing up" all the time whenever she’s outside or when I’m looking at her while she’s on the nest. All the other chickens are attacking her whenever I get her out too, that’s not normal.
What can I do for her to be okay and not die this way? Thanks for the help
