Silver Phoenix Silver Phoenix

I woke yesterday and checked the eggs. One egg looked as if it hatched. The mother was sitting outside the nest beside the newly hatched egg shell. There were seven eggs still in the nest. She was not and did not lay on the leftover eggs for the rest of the day. I never found the missing baby...
What if a puppet chicken with a temp controlled heating pad as a belly sits on the eggs. It could secrete moisture from the underside also. It could have a built in alarm for rotation reminders so maybe it clucks every so many hours as a reminder to rotate. It would be like a cute little...
