Hen brooding, no eggs, no rooster

[sallynewmexico]

In five years of raising chickens in an all-female environment, this is a first. One of my 10-mo. old giant cochin hens has started just hanging out in the coop in one of the nesting places. We've removed her several times a day, boxed out her favorite place, and she just switched places. Will she snap out of it eventually?

Yes, Make sure she has no eggs under and throwing her out she will evenulaty quit.
