    Today is day 21 for broody hen

    Today is day 21 for our broody hen. We collected a dozen eggs for her. We checked this evening and one egg looked crushed. The membrane looked shrink wrapped around chick but not broken but shell crushed from hen. It was peeping. Wondering if we should take other eggs away from her?
