Broody hen

[Will230145]

Hey guys, I’m new here and I have an oegb broody hen, she has 11 eggs and i was told to candle them all at day 8 to throw out the bad ones, all seemed good. But then as I was candling some of them rolled around, do you think they will be ok? Thanks! This is also my first broody hen!

They'll be fine, the hen will turn the eggs several times a day until about day 18. Usually a broody knows which eggs aren't any good and will kick them out of the nest herself.
