[albert101]

So I finally have two Brodie's after waiting for so long, 1 easter egger and 1 game hen.. The problem is they been sitting on dummy eggs but the Easter egger has been sitting on 2 fertile eggs and a clutch of dummy eggs I took out the dummy eggs and put in about 10 eggs and I started the game hen in a fresh batch of 10 eggs to.. The Easter egger ha sheen sitting on the two eggs and dummy eggs about 4 days already so the 2 fertile eggs are 4 days along, so I was asking if the 2 eggs hatch before the other eggs which they will should I take thoose chicks out? So the hen hatches the rest of the others? Thank you
