I had at least two of my eggs expected to hatch this weekend but...Today, my two broody hens decided to get up and take a break but while I was inside I heard my rooster squawking so I ran back out... but I was too late. There was an egg, with what looked like a bite had been taken out, along with blood and feathers all inside. Nothing of the chick left.
Now, I believe to only have one egg out of four hatching this weekend. What could be doing this? I was considering a squirrel because we always have this one which likes to hang out with the chickens...
Will the chick be okay by itself?
Thanks
