we had a storm last night and one of the broodies got soaked- she sat anyway- but I thought it would be best if the eggs weren't in standing water-humidity is one thing-under water is quite another. So I found a similar nest box and prepared it- moved her and the eggs- all 26 then moved the whole shebang to a safer place-she sat for about 5 minutes- then decided- she had had enough.
I was outside shuffling things around because I have some other issues anyway.After 2 hours she still was out being a chicken- so In took in her eggs.I candled-3 infertile,18 stopped early or had wonky air cells,15 still looked possible.I plopped them in the bator that had some space-- I wonder If I should have just left her in the puddle.
