So I’m kinda new to letting broody hens hatch out eggs and I’ve recently bought a Cochin hen. I believe she’s beginning to go broody as she’s been on and off the nest for a couple of days now. I have let her get a collection of about 5 eggs in the last 5 days, and I’m wondering, if she does begin sitting will they be able to produce into a chick, or are the eggs ruined? If the eggs she’s been laying are no longer able to produce after sitting in the nesting box, how do I keep good fertile eggs, that I can place under her when she goes broody?
