3/15 silkies hatched yesterday and today. I moved the momma hen inside, nice set up. She has been a good momma today teaching chicks to eat, drink and keeping them in line and tucking them under her wing abs keeping eggs underneath. However, tonight I think she’s started tapping/pecking at eggs underneath her. She’s black and it’s hard to see exactly what’s happening but I hear her tapping rapidly. Should I move her off the nest and take a look for holes/cracks? The pecking is intermittent but she keeps going back to it. ???
