I have had a hen broody for about 7 weeks now. 3 without fertile eggs. 28 days now with fertile eggs. 2 chicks hatched, 3 days later died and none of the other eggs hatched. This morning I removed the eggs from her, turned her out with the other hens and they are being so mean to her. Will they stop or will they kill her? They are out free ranging right now, but when they return later in the day to the coop I am wondering what might happen and what to do about it.
