I've had chickens for years, but just got roosters last year and am excited to expand my flock through "natural" means. My broody hen was given 4 eggs 4 weeks ago. Somehow 3 broke, so she only has 1 left. Tonight I went out to take the egg away from her and give her 4 more (she's determined to sit) but when I picked up the "dud" it was very light, much lighter than a regular egg. So I put the egg back under her and added the four. Was this the right thing to do? Does a light egg mean a chick is in it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
