I have a super broody Silkie girl. She's been in confinement, in my garage, in a wire rabbit cage, for well over 3 weeks now. She has fresh water and food every day, but she will not break. Yesterday, she stopped eating and drinking. She had pellet feed, but I've since added crumbles, and she won't touch anything. She has never been on the defensive as a broody with us - she lets me pet her, she lets us pick her up, and she doesn't peck or yell, but she is being hugely stubborn. Any ideas on how I can get her to start eating again? She's shown no interest in any of the treats she loves when she isn't broody, and I do not want to lose her to starvation or dehydration. Please help. I'm desperate.
