If you free range your flock...

I had one go broody under the neighbor's bushes. These eggs were infertile, so I brought some home from the farm, and switched them. I wanted to move her, but didn't have a secure place to put her. And, this was when I was having constant vertigo attacks. I decided about a week b4 they would have hatched to build something but something found the nest and ate all the eggs. And a few weeks later, she was killed by a hawk.
