I've had another broody hen in the nest box for the last few days. This particular lady became broody about two months ago and I had a hell of a time breaking her. She was excluded from the chickens pen and she spent her time running back and forwards at the bars like a reverse prison escapee. It took a good three weeks before she could be let back in with the others during the day.
This time as soon as I saw her spending too much time in the nest I came to inspect and she did that indignant clucking noise which signalled another broody episode. She's in for another lengthy exclusion, but as she's bottom of the pecking order anyway I hate to make it worse. So what am I to do with poor Blossom?
