Kristi, why don't you just leave them to be broody? They will quit on their own eventually. Less hassle for you, busy mom lady.So sorry for your chickie loss...never easy!
So I have two broodies... And I dont have time for them to hatch anything now so going to do my best to break them of brood. I have a wire bottom cage but the bad part is it is in my garage and attached to the wall so hard to clean out and with stinky broody poops..not looking forward to that. But what do you do.
