Silkie Constantly Broody

[CoolChickenPerson]

For the past week my silkie has been extremely broody, once the other chickens lay their eggs she steals theirs and tries to hatch them. She has also stopped laying eggs as well. Even when there is no eggs she still goes broody. How do I make her stop and prevent it from happening again?

Lock her away from the nest site to break her broodiness. You can't prevent it from happening again. Silkies spend more time broody than they do laying eggs.
