I have 13 pullets that have started laying about 1 and 1/2 months ago I finally started getting 13 eggs per day last week on tuesday it dropped back to 12 per day and one of my pullets stays on the nest all day and night . I have to take her off to make sure she eats( And she really raises hell when I do this) then 5 mins later she is right back on the nest again. I have 4 nest for the 13 pullets and all the nest are being layed in so some of the other hens go into this nest and lay thier eggs on top of this pullet.I dont think she is laying anymore..Could she be broody at this young age ?
Is there anything else I should be checking her for?Should I just leave her alone and let her get thru this on her own ? Oh I forgot to mention she is a white rock pullet
