I am thinking about scooping up mama and moving her and the eggs into the house into the brooder? Part of me says leave them be, while the rest says "OMG, its flippin' freezing... that's not very nice of me!"

Hmmmmmmm?

Nothing... not a pip!

I'm going to my Yoga class at 6 and then I won't be home until after 8pm to look again. Hubby told me to leave her and the eggs out there, he doesn't want them in the house!

According to my weather channel app on blackberry (i'm a junky) it is offically 30 degrees and feeling like 21 with wind chills in Fuquay Varina, NC. it will get down to 20 without windchills. But its been in the teens everynight for the last 4 nights now.

My due date was actually the 4th, but sadly... they babies are 2 days late

ahh...maybe you will have a great surprise when you wake up?? Did you actually pick momma up to look at eggs? Im not asking you too at all just wondering if you did to check? Ive never had a broody momma-well I did but she was snatched right off her nest the very night her eggs started pipping:-( I rescued eggs in am when I saw the bloody mess and hatched 8 off her 13? babies out She was a sweetheart Bo mom..

Hoping for good things in the morning when you go out. I wonder if it's like low temps in bators. They say they can hatch late from that... but they still hatch. Could that happen under a broody?
