    First time with a fertile egg

    hello, one of my broody hens is laying on a clutch of eggs and today we heard one of the eggs peeping. My mom says we should crack the eggs open, but we don’t know how long the egg has been peeping. Is it okay for us to break the egg or will a broody hen be able to hatch a egg without problems?
