Because of this, I highly recommend either letting her sit on eggs, or do what you can to break the cycle. I don't think letting a hen stay broody without the fulfillment of hatching chicks is good for the chicken. Nor is it good to have laying chickens who are not laying. If the chickens are your pets... its a little different. But if you have chickens for laying eggs... and they are not laying eggs, then that can be a problem.

They worship nothing. They say it's because nothing is worth fighting for. Like this tiny ad:
