Scots in France
Songster
We have a hen that has been laying eggs in "secret nests" for the last month, yesterday we found a nest with 18 eggs in it, from 3 hens (different colours) and collected all the eggs, but put a wooden egg in so she would continue to lay there.
Today she has decided to go broody!
Tomorrow I will lift her and have a look to see how many eggs she has.
I would like her to have 3 eggs minimum.
Can I put some of the eggs I collected yesterday back under her? They have been sitting in a basket in my kitchen...
(we have already had mommas hatch 36 chicks this year...)
Thank you for any input you can provide...
