I have showgirl sitting on about 12 eggs. She is a fearless broody and is always stealing eggs to hatch. My question is can she really hatch them in this weather? Some nights is gets down to 22 here in Michigan. I have an igloo dog house in the silkie pen and the top of the igloo has a hole cut in it with a heat lamp for warmth. I thought about taking the eggs and putting them in the bator but I am not ready to set eggs just yet. Has anyone had a hen hatch chicks in this cold winter weather?
 
Yes.

Chickens have been doing this for centuries without us worrying about them.
