mmmm..A little hard to understand all that you typed but I can tell you you cannot make a chicken go broody. If they are they are. My hens will gather bedding or whatever is around them while in their nesting boxes. They are just getting comfy for laying their egg....It's not unusual to find them with bedding all over their backs while prepping for their egg to be lid...They are just getting comfy If they are broody they will stay in their boxes period...only coming out to eat and drink and right back on their nests.
