RIR broodiness?

[LittleBigBantam]

I have a RIR hen that is sitting on a clutch of eggs and is fairly aggressive when I try to take them. She fluffs up her feathers too, but I have read RIRs dont go broody?

When it says a breed does not go broody it's talking of the breed overall. No matter what the breed, there is always exceptions.

Okay, thank you

I had pure breed RIR and they get broody, sometimes ISA Brown are called RIR. ISA Brown don't get broody.

ISA Browns are a hybrid, Rhode Island Reds are a pure breed. I've never seen ISA Browns called RIRs, they're completely different birds.

The first link though, the poster clearly didn't know the breed of chicken. The second link is the exact same pic. ISA browns are part RIR, so it's legitimate.
