3 Ways to Stop a Broody Hen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 чер 2023
- Hens sometimes decide to brood when the homesteader would prefer that they not. If you want to grow your flock stick as many fertilized eggs as you have under the broody hen. At The Return Homestead we have all the chickens we need for this year, so we want to stop any broody behavior. The daily egg tax means a broody hen has not eggs that will eventually hatch. If she continues on the nest she could starve herself, so we need to break them of just sitting all day. Nutmeg chose herself as the next queen of the coop after we moved Momma in with the Spring Chickens. We moved Momma to stop her from brooding and we hope that will be a good solution for Nutmeg as well.
Is that a cat down under the nest boxes at 2:50?
WOW! I missed that. It is just a collection of feathers, but it looks just like Bella. She was Marti's cat who passed away while we were in Nevada. A near extreme black Persian. She was an inside cat who never saw the chickens.
When you put Nutmeg back in the main coop did she get broody again?
