One of our hens went broody and someone gave us nine fertilized eggs for her to sit on. Today three of them were out of the nest box. Are there too many in there for her to sit on? How many do they usually sit on?
Also, our other hens have slowed production since she went broody. We were getting about five a day from our six hens. Now we are lucky to get three. Is this normal?
Thanks!
