alligg Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hi One of my girls has just had a few days of being broody,we used the wire cage method to stop her and it worked a treat,thank you everyone for all your help with this. would her being broody put the others off laying? up until she started all 4 were laying really good eggs everyday,I understand it may take her a while to get back into it but since she went broody one of the others has stopped laying and we have only has 2 eggs a day since tues last week.is this a sign they might be next or is it just they were a bit put off by it all? thanks Alli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hard to say . I wouldn't have thought her being broody would put the others off laying. I should think it's just a coincidence. There are a lot of us whose hens aren't laying as well as they usually do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
