Question???

Broodiness is a hormone change. I've seen suggestions that they are more likely to go broody if they have eggs, but this has not been my experience. I have 3 who go broody every spring, and I collect eggs daily. They will definitely sit on nothing but a nest for days and days if they are broody.

Yes, that is supposed to be a very broody breed. Is she young? Perhaps she just needs to mature a little more.
