Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[MrsDaisy]

got our chooks on saturday from a nice omlet-eer, the one who is laying laid an egg on saturday eve- woo! however since then she has stayed on the nest for a very large proportion of the day. will pop out to eat/ poop then dashes back. could she be broody? her egg was removed quickly and nothing has been laid since?

 

TIA

It sounds like she could be. Is she all fluffed up when you look at her on the nest? Does she tell you off if you try and take her off the nest? One of mine went broody the other day. I just keep trying to keep her off the nest.

[MrsDaisy]

quite fluffy yes. she's tried to peck my H a couple of times for daring to try and touch her! how do we non broody her?

Hope you have more luck than I'm having

[MrsDaisy]

Sounds as if she might be broody. There is a "sticky" ...HERE... about it.

she has spent some of today trying to hatch a brick, but has spent much more time outside (giving us evils!) I have also dunked her in water as per the instructions. poor thing. hopefully it'll work and she'll start laying again!

thank you for link to emoticons!

That tickled me. I wonder was she trying for bricklets?
