Day 23 Toss or Keep BROODY EGGS

[ldrwnorman47]

I had 14 eggs under my broody. 6 of them hatched yesterday between 8 and 5 and now there are 8 left how long do i leave them??

Is she still setting on them? She wil tell you by getting up off the eggs and leaving them for good.

I have her in a X-Lg Dog crate She doesnt have a lot of room to roam? Now what?

 

[Tuffoldhen]

I'd leave her for acouple more days. Are the hatched chicks still with her? If they are she will get up and teach them to scratch for food or show them where the chick food dish and water are. She will get up off the eggs even if she doesn't have alot of room.

OK. Thank You for the advice.

Ill leave her for a while.
