    I just had one hatch on day 23 and had to help the other out of its shell on day 25 after it peeped because my broody kept burying it in the shavings. The only way to tell if there alive is to look for movement seeing veins is a good thing.

    Help! Broody hen stopped sitting on eggs

    I had this same problem when my broody hen got pushed off the nest by one of my non broody hens that was trying to lay an egg. What I did was separate my broody hen and the eggs into there own nesting box and block the door so she cant get out and no other hens can get in. Like you said I had an...
