mabelandflosmum Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 My 4 year old Flo spent a whole month broody and hadn't snapped out of it before 1year old Snowdrop also went broody. Flo is now behaving as though Snowdrop is her chick, trying to sit on her, covering her with her wing and never leaving the nest box unless I remove them both, which I do all the time as poor Snowdrop is SO hot! Fascinating behaviour but I just want some eggs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonetog Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 If they aren't sitting on anything then there isn't really any point them being broody, so I'd set up a broody cage or similar and try to break the broodiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daxigirl Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Buy them some eggs, or even chicks. You know you want to, go on be a (that's meant to be a devil not evil). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
