I had a broody so I decided to give her some eggs. I gave her 5 eggs on the 4th. I have candled them and all seem to be growing nicely.
Problem: I have a second broody now and every time the first one gets off the nest, the other one takes over and the first one will just return to a different nest with a couple of golf balls in it.
Will it be safe to put the hen and eggs in the brooder I have, or will she stay sitting if she is moved.
Here is a pic of my brooder I use for chicks.
