I'm from North Idaho and need chickens that can take really cold temps. I keep my coop warm with a heat lamp and a warmer for my 5 gal. water can. Can I put fertilized eggs under two broody hens who are sitting TOGETHER on 15 or so eggs? They're my last remaining hens after a Gray Wolf took...
My two banty hens have been hiding eggs and I just found them outside. For the last 4 o4 5 days BOTH hens are sitting constantly on a pile of about 15 eggs. Can I replace those eggs with fertile eggs? I HAVE NO ROOSTER.
