Hen off eggs for how long?

[starrmar006]

My hen stopped being broody.... and the eggs r still warm, can I put the eggs under a heat lamp and they will still grow?

How long did she set on them? It never hurts to try...

How do you know she quit being broody if the eggs are still warm (meaning she left them very soon ago)? They have to eat and drink, you know; they can't sit on them 24/7.

She seemed to loose interest in the nest. She was off the next for over a day. Shucks, maybe next time
