Eggs dirty

[Laceykk]

First timer on brooding hens. We didn’t realize two hens were laying and not sure how old but I’m concerned because the boxes they chose didn’t have much for shavings and many eggs are dirty. Can they survive? Anything I should do? I also have a video I’d like someone to look at and see if they can guess age. I have to take a trip so I need to know! Thanks all!

Welcome to BYC. Clean the boxes as best you can and add clean shavings. Make sure that other hens are not adding eggs to the clutch.
