I have several questions the first being i have a white hen who today i found in one of my nest boxes sitting on the eggs i thought she was just laying but she ate one of the eggs she accidentally broke so i took her out upon taking her out she went nuts like squawking and clucking like crazy when i put her back in the pen she went right back to the eggs sat on them and proceeded to push them under her with her beak does this sound like a broody hen to you?
My second question is because i had 2 hens laying in that box and now she is sitting on the eggs where will the other hens lay?
and my final question is she is a full grown hen and she is also sitting on some Bantam eggs with she keep the chicks as her own if they hatch?
