This article is a start. But IMHO the article is not honest and complete enough about hatching with a broody. It can be easy with the right breed, the right amount of space and a tolerant flock. But often there occur problems if you can’t tick all the boxes for a tranquil hatch.
Another possibility to hatch with a broody is to put her in a separated area. But if you move a broody she can abandon her nest.
Use fake eggs to test the broody. Mark eggs so you know which eggs are new and will hatch later (not).
A tip for the writer: add some links to other articles. Its important that newbies read more articles on natural breeding or breeding with an incubator if they are planning to do so.
