Hey all. I have a buff Orpington who decided to go broody. While checking her yesterday I noticed another buff in her box setting with her. I moved them out of the box to mark the eggs to make sure they weren’t stealing more than she could sit on.
Anyway the original broody left and went to go eat, dust bathe and free range. The second bird took over the clutch.
When I went to check them in the evening the original Orpington was back on the clutch and the second bird was hanging with the flock.
Is this usual?
