My Standard Frizzle Cochin has been laying eggs for about a month, or a bit longer, and she has began sort of sit on them. She will lay them, and sit for a while, then after I let everyone out to free range, She stays, but then eventually gets up and BLABS (I am assuming the egg song?) Then she will stay out for a few hours, and when it is time to go back to bed she gets back on them, and sleeps on them throughout the night. 2 days ago she laid an egg, got up and my Rhode Island Red laid an egg. The Frizzle got back on them. So she is sitting on 2 eggs, and I am hoping that they are fertile because I know that my bantam roo has been busy.
My question is, that since she sits on them, and then gets up. So the temperature of the egg go from warm to normal temp. And then back to warm.
Should I leave them, and since tomorrow is day 3, could I check them with candling?
Are the eggs still good to store in refridgerator because remember, she gets up for hours, but then gets back on?!
Thank you
