That's the biggest fake egg I've ever heard of She probably thought "omg they're not expecting me to hatch THAT are they?" and promptly went on strike.

dunking a broodys bum in cold water will help to stop her. but please dont try that method this time of year. its simply too cold.

ive got a broody sitting on eggies at the minute in one of the broody coops.

can you not let her hatch the eggs if they are fertile.
