Foe mine I exclude her from the house and run during the day. She's out on the grass with food and water. Or in a separate run with her house door shut. And night she joins the main house. But she's still broody. 6 weeks tmw but I've only actively been breaking her for 2 weeks

Oh heavens, it should only be under a week. That's just too much stress on both of you!

When I see that, I walk away. It dries and breaks off. That's their old umbilical cord they are using to "absorb" the yolk.
