Lisastyal Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 The past couple of weeks my 3 hens have been broody. Well I think we escaped lightly from the whole experience as its only lasted just over 2 wks and they are back to their usual selves! Its so nice to see them racing to get out in the morning and scratching around with everyone. One of them still sits for a couple of hours each day but seems to miss the others so gives up ( I think she's just a copy-cat as she didnt go broody till a wk after the others! ) We didnt use broody cages or 'dunking' to snap them out of just lifted them out of teh nest box every couple of hours. Just thought Id bring a ray of hope to anyone going through an unwanted broody phase at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
