@CTKen how long should I allow the eggs that got rejected by the first broody be sat upon. An extra day or 2 if they don't (start hatching by Wednesday, day 21)? Thanks.
That sounds reasonable. If you are brave enough to put your ear close enough to the nest,you may be able to hear the chicks peeping before they hatch. The momma may also cluck softly to communicate with them before they hatch.
