In the Brooder
I have an 7month old RIRxCol hen who has become broody.. I tried today to remove her from the nest box and put her with the rest of the flock (that were getting treats) and she turned and ran right back to the coop. It will be winter here in Southern Ontario soon, so I can not get her a few fertilized eggs right now. Does it hurt to just leave her alone? I don't really care is she doesn't lay right now.. I'm getting plenty from the rest of the girls. Hopefully in the spring if she goes broody again, I will be able to get her a couple of fertilized eggs to hatch..Opinions pls... My first time with hens!
