Hen setting on 14 eggs

[TommyVT05]

My hen set today. Ya!!! Originally, there are 8 jungle fowl eggs that she laid. I stuck in 6 bantam eggs (my longtails) in there as well. Thats 14 total. Is that ok? Well, the other 6 are bantam eggs so didn't take up much space...am I OK? Want to make sure : )

So exited!!!

As long as she can keep them covered and warm there are no worries.

 

[TommyVT05]

I really hope so too!

Yeah, it fits under her really well. Very well covered and you can't see any eggs sticking out, so yeah. Besides, the Onagadori bantam eggs are so small too. About the size of the OEGB eggs only.

I put a little dish in her nest earlier this morning with feed in case she is hungry but she doesn't even bother looking at it. She's so into it...
