Moved a broody

[DaisyG2317]

My 2nd Isa Brown has gone broody. Our rooster was killed by a coyote a couple months ago so she has no fertile eggs. I want to get her some day-old fall chicks from my feed store. I moved her to my broody coop 2 days ago and she is adamant about nesting on the floor in the run. Will she eventually go up in the nest box? Does it even matter?

Honestly it doesn't matter. She'll move them from the box anyways within a day or two

That's what I suspected but just wanted to make sure, thanks!

Most of mine nest on the ground. Just make surenits not damp there and it should be fine
