Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do. 
I work nights, and when I got home this morning, there was an egg in one of the boxes. I don't know what time it was laid, but the birds got put up around 7:30 - 8 last night. My son puts them up for me after I go to work, but he apparently didn't check for eggs. I think its my little porcelain d'Uccle's (she was acting like she might be getting ready before I went to work). It has been getting cooler at night, should it still be good?
And also, I collected I think 2 more eggs this morning before I went to bed. The rest were laid from 11:30am-5:00pm. It was probably about 80-85° here. Should those eggs still be good, if they sat there for few hours?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really don't wanna try to feed my kid or other family members any spoiled eggs...
