Hey everyone,
So my silkie hen has gone broody for the third time in 3 months (i know, shocker..) Everytime we break her, she is very upset and just mopes around the coop. She is at the bottom of the pecking order and I just feel so bad for her. We do not have any roosters (we live in gainesville city limits), but I was wondering if we just continue to break her and forget about it. OR if we could get fertilized eggs and let her baby them. Her previous owner said she sat well for 3 hatchings and is a good mom (another reason why I feel bad). Any advice?
