She has been laying one a day for almost a month and now she hasnt laid in a few days but keeps setting?

If she's still sitting in the nest she's probably broody. Does she puff up at you and growl when you stick your hand in there?

Not really but I am her favorite she just adores me!I have been wondering if I should just let my Roo back with hens and let her go broody?
