Oh and one egg was covered in yoke, so I’m guessing she ate an egg or two...

Oh, dear...I'm sorry to hear thatI have a broody hen that was sitting on 12 eggs - I’ve been checking in on her and day 21 She was still sitting on 12 eggs. She’s very protective of her eggs. I’ve hatched out chicks before.
HOWEV
Day 22 there are only 11 eggs in the hutch.
Day 23 there are only 10 eggs.
No chicks anywhere in sight!
She’s alone with her eggs in an A-frame hutch. The hutch is designed for hatching chicks with small wire so they can’t get out and nothing can get in. This A-frame is inside of the big chicken run/coop.
WHERE ARE THE EGGS/CHICKS GOING?
