My two hens went missing a while back. I figured they are setting. Well sure enough, I found them today. They both are in the garage. One is on the ground behind the welder. I'm not worried about her. But the other is on a dresser, half on the dresser and half on a picture frame that is leaning against the dresser. I see below that two eggs have already dropped and broke (empty inside). I worry that if she hatches these eggs, that the babies will fall or be pinched between the frame and the dresser. So should I move her and the eggs into the coop? I've never moved a broody hen and her eggs before. My husband says to leave them but I worry that if I do, the babies will die. They aren't going to be able to get down with out falling anyway. HELP?
I don't know when she went broody so I'm not sure how far into the incubation process that the eggs are.
thanks, Erica
