Where is she sitting on eggs? My hen chose to sit on eggs in the wood ash pile right where dogs and other predators could get to her. When I tried to move her she started going out in the woods someplace to lay her eggs. I had to stop that as I wouldn't have her long with all the coyotes.I don't use lights here either I let them run their natural cycle. I also thought I was done with hatching for the year. My last batch of chicks hatched 2 weeks ago and I packed up my 2 incubators. Well I was away on vaca for a week and came home to a broody chicken hen sitting on 5 chicken eggs and what looks to be a 1st time broody turkey hen sitting on 8 turkey eggs. Guess Im not done quite yet since the birds had other plans for me. This will be my first time ever having a turkey hen hatch her own babies(I wasn't expecting it to happen this year since this is their first season of egg laying but then again I never let their eggs accumulate) Now Im wondering how to go about it. I know I will have to separate her from the toms. I have 2 hens and 2 toms should I put her alone or with the other hen also. And how soon should I make her a separate area, now or closer to hatch?
