I have a Bantam Hen, unknown breed who has decided to sit on eggs. I can not reach the eggs, see how many she is on or try to relocate them. She has laid them under my chicken coop which is connected to a goat barn and I can not get to them. I honestly don't know if they are even fertile bc I have never seen the rooster on top of her.
I am concerned becuase I am a new chicken owner and she was under there all day yesterday, never saw her come out for food or water. It is possible she did, when I was not looking of course. Will she be ok, do they survive and thrive on their own???
Should i try hard to see if I can reach the eggs and relocate her to inside a chick brooder I have maybe? I don't even know if i can reach it, technically she has another week and a half.
Thanks for your help.
