    Default Nest?

    What is the latest y’all have ever seen a hen actively sitting on a nest? I ask because I bumped a hen off her nest yesterday afternoon walking a field behind the house. Thought it was strange for her to still be on the nest.

    If the nest is destroyed, they will make several re attempts. This should be about the latest attempt I have heard of!!!

    Guy at work smashed 2nests 2-3 weeks ago cutting hay. One of the hens got away. Not so lucky on the other one.

    I saw a hen with very small poults on Aug 18 several years ago.
    Crops are harvested, animals are killed.
