I've had my broody hen who's been sitting on 6 silkie eggs that have been shipped to me. Its been 13 days now and I recently candled them yesterday.

What I realised was that the air sack was detached, it wasn't just one circle on the top half of the egg. I don't know what do now to keep the air sack right because in a normal incubator you'd just have to set the eggs upright and not turn them for a few days in order for the air sack to fix itself. But under a broody hen it's different because the hen regularly turns them.

Any help is appreciated

What type of pics do you want me to send?
Have you tried candling the rest of the eggs to see if they were developing?
