Are eggs out of a cold coop good to hatch?

[Jeff Cooper]

We gather eggs twice daily ...... once when we let the flock out in the morning and again when we lock them in at night.

This morning there were two eggs ...... one had a hen on top of it and the other was in another nest alone.

The temperature inside the coop got down to 23.9 degrees Fahrenheit last night.

Will these eggs be good to incubate or should I pass on them?

Thanak you if you can help.

If they're not frozen, or split I'd do an experiment to see if they do develop, or not.

I found something similar in my coop. I only have this fertile egg and am wondering if it is worth hatching or if I should wait for more eggs

February of last year I hatched an egg that I swear was just above freezing when I collected it. It was so cold! It went on to hatch just fine. I’d would go ahead and set them as long as you candle first and don’t see any micro cracks.

wait for at least 5 eggs so if one hatches it will have a buddy hopfull andas long as its not frozen if you let it warm up some then put in the incubator and it will be fine
