My chicken became broody again??

[Happy0Sarah]

My hen is a silkie mix and she became broody in the beginning of july/end of june. We had no intention of keeping her broody so we put her in an wire-bottomed fence and she broke out of her broodiness within 3-4 days. ( I don't have a rooster so there's no chance of the eggs being fertilized, and that's why i want to break her out of her broodiness since she's only hurting herself in this state....) Now, at August 11, she became broody again! I went outside to feed her to see her sitting on her eggs and I was shocked! Is this normal? What should i do this time? I don't want anymore chickens.


please help!

This is absolutely normal for silkies or silky crosses. Some will go broody 6 or more times a year.
