Hi guys
I have four silkies and two are currently broody (on day 15 I think) so spend all their time in the nesting boxes. My other two PomPom and Lavender aren’t broody and are just going about their normal business, however Lavender hasn’t laid in four days now. I saw her up there a couple of days ago, but nothing came out. She’s not egg bound as I’ve felt around and she is also acting completely normally, pecking, eating, drinking etc.
I guess my question is could she be put off laying by the other two in the boxes all the time?
thanks
