I know have 19 eggs.is it possible for 2 mother to hatch all those eggs, looks like 2 many eggs for one bird to sit on at one time, should I separated the newer from the older eggs and make each pile 9- 10 eggs? Will that help..or what else should I do? Help please.....

You have two broodies? Are they in separate areas so they cannot steal eggs from each other's nests? Have you been collecting the eggs and are now ready to dole them out or have they been collected by the broodies from other hens over several days?
 
I would only put as many as the broody can cover. Some on here say no more than 10. I had 12 under my broody all but one hatched.
