Rosie had been broody for around 4 weeks (I hadn't let her sit on any eggs) and for the past week has been going back to normal.
When will she start to lay eggs again? She is a pekin bantam and is just over 3 years old, but was laying eggs before she became broody.
Her sister Albertine is a mum of 2 chicks at the moment, but Albertine was laying eggs too before she became broody.
The 3 other hens (we have 20 chickens altogether, but these 5 are the eldest) who are just over 3 years old, have more or less reached 'menopause'.
Maybe Rosie won't lay again because of her age and the break from laying she's had?
Thank you
