Still Moving the Egg

[wenwar]

Denaris is still moving her egg, today it fell from the nesting box and broke. Any suggestions on keeping her and her egg in the nest would be appreciated.

around the nesting box?

Does your nesting box have a lip on it? Maybe make it higher. I have one buff orp that goes broody all the time and she will move the other eggs from one nesting box to her favorite one. I have a 5 inch lip on the box but she still gets it over, then into the other box. My nesting boxes are not high, though.

Would it help if I made the nesting box deeper?

Do you want her to sit and hatch?
This is what my experience has taught me.
It may give you some ideas.
