The "refrigerator egg" thread

I put 3 more eggs in incubator from fridge. I had a hen that started laying then lost my roo. went to the fridge grabbed last 3 eggs. I hope they will be okay. I had them under a hen for a week or so, it got cold- she was kicked off the nest by a fickle broody, so I put them in incubator. due on tues.
Blue Isbar eggs
 
So the results of my fridge hatch, 24/36. Not bad considering some of those eggs were about 2 weeks old. They did tend to be a bit late hatching on day 22. Sold them all as soon as they hatched except I kept 4 olive eggers. So I guess if you ever need to hatch a bunch of eggs in a hurry go ahead and add the fridge eggs!
