2 down. 4 to go 🤗

Ok. Thankyou. They all went in together.

Is she still sitting on nest?

So .... removed the other 4 eggs on day 25. Turns out it was a good decision. 2 were dead & only (what seemed to be) half developed & the other 2 were just a sloppy mess with no chicks at all
Quite happy with just the 2. I really only wanted 3 eggs to begin with, for my first attempt.
Mumma freaked out a bit at first but now happily back to eating, drinking & being a proud chicken Mumma.
that at least 1 is a hen.

P.S Thankyou SO much to those who shared their wisdom. Hugs

Sorry. Didn't see this at first. She's off. Other eggs are gone & she's happily back to being a chicken & Mumma. Doing a great job too.

Good Luck and have fun with your new chicken family members. It's so neat watching mamma hens reacting and teaching new hatchlings.
