Hi everyone, I have a question about my golden sex link girl. I have a mixed group of 8 girls,no roo. Lulu has been broody for the last 2 months. She does not care if she sits on eggs or which nestbox she is in. She just stays on the nest until I put her out several times a day. I have tried putting her in a cage off the ground with a fan on her but she jumps and hits the top and bloodies her cone trying to get out. (this always works on the other girl who gets broody now and then). Just looking for ideas, she was such a good and funny chicken before she started this behavior and I want her back.
 
Try a bigger taller cage, or even make something out of wire. Sometimes just moving them can help. Is the fan freaking her out?
