    Day 21 and no signs of babies:(

Today is day 21 and I do not see any signs of the babies. I put a few eggs under a broody hen one day earlier than I...

    Max Time Frame for a Broody Hen

    I have eight hens and one rooster. One of my hens went broody and we want baby chicks this spring. Rather than incubate, I decided to let my broody hen become a momma. She had 7 eggs under her, but upon candling today (day 10) none are fertilized. Should I break her from being broody at this...
