Hi! I have a broody hen sitting on some hatching eggs out in my barn right now and we have some warm weather coming up, in the upper 80’s, and I’m worried about her getting too hot. Will she? Is there anything I could do to keep her cool like putting a fan on her, or would that stress her out too much? I’m also concerned about her getting dehydrated. We do have chick electrolyte powder that I can put in her water, will that keep her hydrated? Should I take her out to eat and drink more often than usual? All help is appreciated!!
