    Ok to eat eggs ?

    One of my hens is sitting on the eggs, she won't get out of the box. My question is if she sits on the eggs are they still ok to eat ? She sat on them less than 24 hrs. I wish I could make her stop wanting to sit on the eggs.

    Can chickens see at night ?

    Was trying to teach my rooster a lesson tonight and keep him out of the coop when it was getting dark. Next thing I know he is running into everything. Then he just squatted down and wouldn't move anymore. I picked him up and put him in the coop and he is sleeping on the floor. Thanks
