I've read the other threads regarding this and I know the consensus has been that there really is no sure fire way to encourage broodiness, but I thought I'd ask again anyway.
I have a hen who completely went broody last year, and she is walking around broody right now; sitting sometimes; doing the "gurgle" thing, etc. I want her to finally park her butt and go full brood, but it seems to be taking forever. I have a bunch of fake eggs in a low nest for her, but other than that, has anyone had any noticeable successes with increasing broodiness? Broodiness "hacks" so to speak?
