Help! Will they hatch?

[Crinixx]

My silkie had eggs on nov 6, just today we found her dead on top of her eggs. They were out for about 2-3 hours? Not sure but outside isint cold. Not long ago i put them under a heat lamp, i made sure not to move them alot. 6 eggs. Im not quite sure if they will hatch. Will they hatch? What can i do? Any tips? Precautions? If they hatch what should i take in note?

Can you get or make an incubator? They need to be at 99.5 degrees. You'll need a humidity monitor as well. Her dying doesnt affect the eggs technically, just the time she was off the nest, but 2-3 hours is recoverable I think. You'll also need to figure out how and when to rotate them.

What will the rotation do? How do i find out?

Someone on here should know. I have an egg turner in my incubator so I'm not sure the details on turning it manually.
It keeps the eggs developing evenly.

Rotation stops the embryo from adhering to the shell.

edit: I see the other part of your question now.

I mark each egg at the big end in pencil with the numbers 1-4 evenly spaced around. Every few hours (Say 3 or so, not exact) I turn the egg so the next number is facing up. That’s 1/4 turn.

while the heat lamp provides heat and you provide the turning, eggs also need humidity of around 50%. this part is also variable.

what’s not variable is temperature. The eggs need a steady incubation temperature of 37.5C (99.5F).

Do you have any idea why she died?
