Hi everyone
We have a silkie cross that often gets broody (far left in my profile pic, bouffant, so pretty!). We lock her out the nest box for 2 days and she is back to laying...normally. It has been over a week and today we tried sitting her in water. She was on her own for a while after, then went back to the flock. Now she has vanished. They are free range and have a large area that they explore. We have looked and looked for her. We have a big field behind us with grass up to our thighs which they don't like much and it is raining really hard. What do you think her instinct will be? Something low rather than high? Covered or open? We have 30 minutes until it is dark :'(
