Do broody hens always sit in the nest box

Recommended Posts

Martha the welsummer laid an egg today :dance: - she's not laid any for around 3 weeks. Was getting worried she was egg bound or laying internally - saw some horrific photos of this on another forum :vom: But could she have been broody but just not sitting in the nest box :?: . She had been sitting in the run quite a bit - thought it was just with the warmer weather - and she has been eating and drinking. In the last couple of days she has been a bit more active and was up and down the ladder to the nest box like a yo-yo today before she laid today.
