I have a broody white leghorn as well! She's a silly little thing.... I'm hoping she'll snap out of it soon.

don't count on it , we had a white leghorn once that would hide in rolls of hay and hatched two broods a year.

Well I don't have a rooster, so Zoey won't be hatching out any chicks.

Good luck to her!

I had one go broody. She was as dedicated as the next hen when it came to broody but not the best of moms, and she layed quicker than any hen I ever had to lay after being broody.

She is still on,,i candeled them and saw a pea sized dark spot with blood viens shooting in all directions, This is a sign of growth right?? a good sign?
