2 of my BO hens are broody I think? They've been in the boxes for 2 days now, I think? I'm assuming they haven't left the boxes much as I can't be out there all the time. I'm not sure how many eggs they're on, we do have a roo so all the eggs should be fertilized. I'm nervous 
I've heard horror stories about broody hens not eating and barely drinking, losing feathers etc. So what do I need to do? What can I expect? It's 21 days to hatch correct? We only have 4 nesting boxes, but 2-3 of them lay in a nest they made under the boxes kind of in the corner. Do I need to move them? I tend to lean toward letting nature take its course BUT I want to protect and take care of my hens and ultimately do what's best for them
Any help is greatly appreciated
