Hi all,
I've just gotten over my Araucana, Topsie's five days in a cage to break her broodiness. It's been about only one month since and she is at it again.
Maddeningly, the first day in the cage she laid an egg! However, she is clucky and runs back to the nest immediately if I let her out. I get tired of the fights in the nesting box as she tries to muscle her way in...
I'm in Perth, Western Australia and it is very hot at present. I have the cage inside in the laundry so she can be comfortable. Is this a bad idea? Will she go mad with nothing to look at apart from the washing machine and the cat litter box?
