    A piece of broken shell

    Hello from Magnolia, Tx

    Hello everyone, I'm new here and also to the chicken world, and as a mater of fact, one of my chicken has 10 eggs and one of them has opened. I don't think if it's time to hatch because the embryo is still inside a bag with liquid. I took the shell off thinking it was dead, but it moved, so I...
