Hey! One of my Barred Rock's are broody with fertile eggs. We candled them day 19 and most of the egg was taken up by the chick. My fear is, what if they don't hatch? They are all Barred Rock eggs, laid by my broody hen, and so they are bigger eggs, but seeing that they have a bantam father, will the chicks be too small for the larger egg? I know chicks will get to big for their egg and hatch, but I dont know if these Barred-Rock-Bantams are going to get big enough. Anybody know the outcome?
