I have a silkie hen that has been setting on eggs for over a month now. She also has a helper hen that is laying eggs in the pile and helping her sit. Together they get VERY upset if I go near them and try to mess with the eggs. These eggs are not going to hatch and now there are so many (over 30) that my 2 little 1 pound silkies can't cover them all. Is there anyway to make them stop setting? Should I just take the eggs from them? I feel bad because they have worked sooooo hard on trying to hatch these eggs.
Please help!
