3.6m Omlet Chicken Run for sale, Brand New in Boxes, Milton Keynes (MK19)

[mabelandflosmum]

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!

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.

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).
