My broody hen was sitting on eggs when we decided to move her to a safer, more protected spot. We moved her/them at night and I stayed with her a while to make sure she would stay with the new nest, but when we woke up, she had abandoned the eggs to move back to the old nest. I don't know how long the eggs were left, but it was very cold (around freezing.)
My son put the eggs back under her, but I don't think they'll hatch. What are the chances? They were due to hatch in 3 days when we moved her. She is still sitting on them. (They'd be due to hatch tomorrow.)
