💡 A ‘broody’ hen is a hen that wants to hatch its own eggs.
This can be caused simply by your hen getting older and maturing, or simply by the days getting longer.
The increasing length of the day encourages the body to release prolactin (hormone) from the hen’s pituitary gland.
The combination of prolactin and sunlight makes her broody, and she will sit on the recent eggs she has laid.
She will also likely steal other hens’ eggs to make a ‘clutch’ of eggs.
⭐ Broody Hen
A broody hen will sit on its eggs all day.
Some breeds are more prone to broodiness than others, notably: Cochins, Selkies, and Orrington.
How Do I Know If My Hen Is Broody?
Usually, a broody hen will start by making a nest in a quiet, dark spot and will spend all of her time there.
She will start carrying bits of straw and feathers to line the nest, and she will even pluck her own feathers from her breast to keep her eggs warm.
They will develop an ‘attitude,’ growling and grumbling at you even if you look at her!
She may even give you a nasty peck if you try to move her.
