Moving broody day 14?

[mom2landj]

I have 10 week old chicks I just moved out of the little coop in with the big girls. I have a broody in there sitting on 13 eggs. I've taken eggs from her to candle them numerous times. We are on day 14 now and I was thinking I'd like to move her to the little coop now that the pullets are out of it. There are now 10 hens (including broody) and 6 pullets in the big coop. I cleaned the little coop and freshened it up and built her a nice little nest. Was going to move her after dark tonight but just read not to move after day 10. Any suggestions?

I've moved my broody. She was happy just to have the eggs. My first experience was a nightmare with other hens always trying to lay in her nest and breaking eggs. Just placed her in a large dog crate and placed her eggs in front of her. She pulled them under her and was happy for the peace and quite!

Did you move your broody? How did it go?
