Guess what? I just found another nest!!!i now have 15 eggs in the coop in a best and 9 in a nest in my asparagus. It is about 15 ft from the pen in my raised garden. What do I do? To is going to get cold here one of these days! Should I put them in the incubator or wait for one of the hens to go broody?

Here's hoping that your hen will go broody. I finally gave up on mine after a ridiculous amount of eggs went bad. I guess I'll see if my neighbors silkie has any luck.

You could try an incubator or silkie hen if you don't want to chance the cold. Good luck!

Believe me they will be more than willing! The problem will be if they free range finding their nest! I went from 15 to 60 guineas. I gave away and sold a bunch.
