Why does my hen do this?

[Melnich]

Why is my broody hen moving her eggs from nest box to nest box?
The other day I found 3 in a different nest box (I know they’re hers cuz I marked them) and now today there are 2 different ones in a different nest box… is she trying to abort them? Is she trying to cool them? Do I leave them? Put them back under her? I’ve been putting them back under her…. Today is day 14 of 21

She's seeking privacy.

Shes by herself-the others are let out right away in the am (there are only 3 other ones)

Is the nest box dark and secluded?

Have you checked for mites or lice that could be bothering her?
