Hello friends!!:)

Hi peeps!! I have had chickens for 2 years now! We got a rooster a couple months ago and we now have bitty chicks!! There were a few eggs that did not hatch and she is not sitting on them! Does this mean they are no good?

Hi

Glad you could join the flock! Congratulations on your new chicks! I woukd say yes your eggs are likely not to hatch now your hen has left the nest. She will only stay on the nest for so long after chicks have hatched her priority is then to look after her hatched chicks and begin learning them how to feed and drink.
Here is a lovely article on broody hens https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/guide-to-letting-broody-hens-hatch-and-raise-chicks

Wishing you the very best of luck with your flock and be sure to ask any questions everyone here to help and very friendly.
Enjoy BYC
