Hen abandoned nest on due date! Advice please!

[Emmasmom]

My hen apparently left her clutch of about twenty eggs sometime today. The high today was 90 and is about 75 now. I have a incubator and we're bringing the eggs in. Do you all think there's a chance they may survive, assuming at least some of the eggs are viable? Anyone have this issue? Thanks in advance!

If the eggs are viable, they will hatch. Check to see that the nest is not infested with mites. They can frequently the cause of a hen breaking broodiness.

I will check, thank you!
