My frizzle hen has hatched four gorgeous little chicks. She's separated from all other chooks, has food and water immedietly available and more than enough room to scratch around in. She has spent a little time with the chicks but has returned to sitting,on the remaining eggs. Is there any chance they will hatch,or is it best to remove them so she focuses on her chicks? Thanks!!
 
There is still a good chance they will hatch i would let her sit on them until she decides to move, i wouldn't throw the eggs until i candle them or do a float test, i have heard of chicks hatching at day 35, maybe candle the eggs just to check? :)
 
She was tending them very carefully so I have left them for now. Will candle them in a day or two if she's still sitting :) thank you!!
