she was a persistent hen. After i got the eggs and let her back in she went right back to sitting on the nest... I wish I could let her hatch some eggs but I don't have a rooster and can't have one... I thought Eleanor was going to lay her egg right on top of Opal LOL

well after noticing that I am pretty sure this is day 3 of Opal being broody and readin this thread

Everything about this made me laugh: the broody hen growling at Eleanor, the furious howling of Opal when you tried to remove her from the nest, and then the Broody Buster.

This made my day, thanks for sharing!

So tomorrow I am going to be getting a few fertile eggs from a friend... I took her out of the broody buster... I felt bad for her... so I am going to let her hatch some eggs out....

Yes! That will be awesome. And your broody buster will be perfect for when she's close to hatching!
