I have 27 hens and 1 rooster. One of my hens, a black austrolorp, is broody and has been on eggs 17 days now. I'm reading on here that I should have moved her? Is it too late?
I tried incubating eggs before, but the flock I had wanted no part of letting new birds in. This flock I have now were shipped to me and are 9 months old. I felt that aclimating them would be easier if momma hatched and raised them.
Now i'm wondering if i should separate her from the flock or at least move her and give her space to raise and protect them.
btw...none of the others have seemed to bother her at all
