I have the same problem, 3 of mine are broody. They are sharing 2 nest boxes, and I've been taking the eggs, so only golf balls are left in the boxes. Drives me crazy though, because the one BO has been this way for 2 weeks, and I can't break her. I've told them that we can't have babies right now, but they sure are eager.
