How do I get the eggs out without her freaking out on me. She's not your normal silkie her ans the roo. They aren't friendly like they say they aew suppose...

    No we have 13 red Hens and none of then are broody. My bator has 4 eggs in it. They Are suppose to hatch on June 8. I'm assuming I can't put in new eggs since its already a week away before hatch. Could I take some out ans put in the Fridge till my bator becomes avalible again?

    You were right She's back on them. She has 11 eggs in there. I looked when she was out. Do you think thats too mucb for her? Everytime I try to look under her to make sure shes sitting on all of them she's gets really mad. I don't want to bug her I just want to make sure I doing everything...

    So i think she decided to set. She's been there since this AM. Her and the Roo are in a pen together just the 2 of them. Do I keep him in with her or should I let him roam with the other hens I have?
