Thanks!

Thanks! I'm so worried they will hatch and fall out before I find them after work. I'm a nervous, new mom!

Thank you! Fabio is a real sweetheart!

This is my 1st broody hen. She is on day 19. I have her separated from flock, but she's in a large, deep basket. The babies will nof be able to get in and out. Should I move her and eggs to a different basket now before they hatch?

My hen's eggs are due to hatch in 2 days (day 21). Now she is in a deep basket which the babies would not be abke to get in and out. Should I move her and her eggs to a more " baby friendly" box now or wait until they hatch? We work, so I probably won't be here when they hatch. This is my...

Could someone tell what breed my rooster mat be?

How soon do I need to separate broody hen from flock before eggs hatch?

Thanks! Think I'm just gonna leave them alone and see what happens!

Should I see chick movement when canlding eggs at 7 days? They are light brown eggs. I can see dark areas. Never done.this before, but they don't look loke any videos I've seen.

Thanks!

Would it be best to move her at night? I new to all this!

Is it possible to move broody hen and eggs to different nesting box?

My Buff Orpington is setting. I tryed to move her to new nesting box, but didnt like that idea. I went out 2 1/2 hours later and she had moved to old nest and the eggs were cold. I put them back with her. Will they still hatch after being cold. Is day 5.

I'm in Arkansas, so hopefully it will be warm by then. I'm only gonna hatch a few, maybe 3. Maybe they all won't be roosters

Thanks for the help! Think I'm gonna let her set on a few eggs. I have a rooster, so I need to pick pullet eggs! Lol
