My little hens are broody, severly broody! Once we solved the mystery of why they were all ganged up in one box on top of one another (I put pingpong balls, two, in three boxes and they instantly spread out. Probably said, Hurrah! But they have been at this for more than a week, and are becoming dehydrated, and losing weight. Since they are small to begin with, I don't think this is good. I've been trying to shoo them out of the boxes at least three times a day, with tempting things like cooked brown rice and millet, and watermelon, etc, but I'm worried. Should I be?
