Some broodies are just not good at hatching.

I am so hoping yours does not do the same. Unfortunately I sat right beside her for the next one which probably stressed her, but it was each peep that really made her insane. I am almost positive that she did not recognize the peep sounds and thought they were predators underneath of her.I just had a first time broody do the same to her first chick. Waiting to see what she'll do with the final two eggs now that I've read your thread...
They may take up to 24 hrs to start again on their zipping.If anyone knows anything about this egg, please let me know. Going on 14 hours now with no change...View attachment 2667852
Have you candled the egg? If so do you see movement inside the egg? If the chick has internally pipped, you will see the chick "pulse"upward towards the light.If anyone knows anything about this egg, please let me know. Going on 14 hours now with no change...View attachment 2667852
I didn’t even notice that! That will narrow down the choices.
