Newbie Question re: Hen Laying

[marilynfasani]

I just want to know: I have a broody hen- if I take her off her imaginary nest, will she ever lay again?

Yes, Once getting over being broody she will lay normally. But it is harder to break a broody then just taking her off the nest. I've been lucky with mine. I just toss them out of the coop at every opportunity. Takes about a week and they've given up. Some people have to put them in wire cages with no material in it. Cool off their bottoms.

What breed is she?

Good luck
