I have a hen on eggs that are not fertile. I keep taking them. Is that ok. The chickens where laying in our cat house and I didn't know this. When I found them, there was a dozen eggs in their. I took them all right away. Now one of my bantie's is trying to sit on eggs.

I am new to raising chickens. What do you do in this situation>

Thanks

You can either get her some fertile eggs (if you want chicks) or let her sit on nothing (which will make her nonproductive for 5 or more weeks) or break her broodyness.

Go to the feed store and buy her three baby chicks.

That should end the broodiness.

Doesn't everyone love baby chicks?
