I have a hen thats been sitting on eggs for at least 5 days now. I live in south texas. Should I worry about her getting water? I don't watch her 24-7 but I haven't seen her out of that nest at all.
I've had broody hens in the past but they all seem to lose interest after about 2-3 days...or as soon as I put new feed out for them. This one seems really promising. Oh, also, her laying box is about 3.5 to 4 feet off the ground. Should I worry about the chicks falling when they hatch?
Thanks for the info!!
