[CHICKENS-101] Old hen went broody and now her daughter is too

 

I hope I don't have a broodiness epidemic. One of my oldest hens went broody a couple of weeks ago. I keep taking her out of the nesting box, she may eat or drink a bit, and then she goes right back in. She's not even laying anything. To make matters worse, one of her daughters from a couple of years ago decided to join her. This is prime, laying real estate they're taking up! Does the cold water thing really work? I've got to do something.
