day 27 of guinea hen hatcch under broody hen--please help

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

I'm hearing peeping from the guinea eggs I set under a couple hens.  I live in NW Colorado--and it is HOT and DRY.  Should I gently spray either the underside of the hen or the top of the eggs w/a little bit of water to help the keets hatch out?  I understand the humidity should be relatively high.  Please advise!

Leave momma to do her job. She'll wet her underside if the eggs need it.
