Does anyone have any advice for me?

move her onto a wire bottom cage, give her scrambled or boiled eggs and water with apple cider vineager. Or take her off the nest multiple times a day and duck her belly into cool water, not to cold or she'll shock. Just make sure she gotsgets Lots of protein and water.

Others have replied with good ideas. If these don't work or if you can't move her (understand it is your neighbors hen), try going to the main search area at the top of the page and typing in "broody hen break". There are a lot of results and replies that might also be helpful. Sorry that is all I can offer as I have not had this issue. Good luck!

Hoping that the rain holds off... today is our first official day of furlough. DH is off fishing and after a weather check I decided to get up and wait for daylight so I can get straight to work on the coop. Trying to finish up before the rains come again! It poured here yesterday and what seemed like all night. I had stopped emptying my rain gauge and just let it fill up. Noticed a couple days ago it was around the 3" mark, this morning - overflowing. More than another 2" of rain in the past couple of days. Need to mow the yard again at some point...

Good morning folks

I managed to weed-whack a few edges yesterday and
decided to quit for the day and take a shower to cool
off and wash off the bits that gets collected on a body
from the whacker......got out of the shower to see Mother
Nature decided she needed a shower too.....hers was
much longer than mine

it's hard too get much
one outside in the afternoon........the swimming pool
thinks it's retired

hope everyone has a good day

Our first day of furlough too.

It is nice having DH home, but we need the $ he normally makes. So since all the outside jobs are rained out we are indoors making chicken inventions! Fermented feed buckets and feeding troughs!
