Are my eggs gonna be ok?

[Allie Grace Sanders]

My hen is a one year old Welsummer who decided to go broody. She was sitting on a clutch of eight eggs and they are in day 4. Sometime during the night she broke one and moved to a different nest! I brought the eggs into my garage and checked if they were thriving or not, and all seven were! They were cool to the touch though. I gave them back to her, but will the still hatch?

If they were left to cool for just a few hours and seem to be still alive, it is very likely they will be fine as long as she doesn't damage or abandon them again. Eggs can withstand being cooled surprisingly well. They might end up hatching a day late or so.
