While on vacation more hens went broody. But the eggs are not covered everytime we look at them. How many eggs can one hen have under her at a time with success? How do I figure out which eggs to leave under my hens and which to remove? Do I wash the eggs before incubating them? And how do I know what to set my incubator at? The more chicks the merrier here. But I don't want all my eggs going bad and no chicks. I'm thinking maybe the other hens are still laying in the nest boxes with the eggs that they are setting.
Can anyone help me?
