Awesome video right to the point. Dog house cheaper than a small chicken coop. I love it.

How long can a broody hen safely brood? She's been at this 20 some days, but we have chicks coming in 4 weeks... what do we do with her? Break her or let her keep brooding?

From my experience it is pointless to try to break the broody. She will stop on her own when her hormone level balances out. When that happens to me I make sure to take her out of the coop once a day. She then goes to eat, poop, bathes and goes back to her spot. That is all you can do. Nature does its thing.

@@MagnificentHomesteading I did exactly as you suggested. She ate, drank, pooped and chased away everyone away from treats.. then went back to her plastic eggs and golf balls. Interested to see what happens! Thank you for writing back.

@@ydforbearballew I had a broody that looked very determined for few days to sit on eggs and when I put fertilized eggs under her she changed her mind and refused to sit on those eggs. You never know with them for sure. Then I placed another hen to sit on those eggs and she decided to become broody and helped finish the job.

I see you added water inside her little coop but do you feed her with the other chickens?

She forages all day long around the yard with babies.
