Well, I just had a first. Broody hen just had an egg burst under her. I heard it happen and went to investigate and the smell was awful. It got into several eggs, but I quickly removed the nest box and cleaned it and replaced the hay. Mom had some gunk on her, but not terribly. I didn’t clean the eggs off because it had dried by the time I got the nest clean. Candled the other eggs and they are alive. What’s the percentage the others will actually hatch since this happened?
