Yes!! I candled the remaining 5, 2 weren’t fertilized so I threw them out and put the last 3 in the incubator. 1 hatched late last night and the other two are still incubating. I’m not sure if they make it as I haven’t seen any movement or chirping. But yes, we counted 10 eggs when we moved her to her own location.

It happens quite often that the broody hen will lay another small last egg while already 2 or 3 days into brooding. These chicks will be much smaller, as these last eggs are much smaller than the ones laid before.
