They got egg on all the other eggs. They are then sticky, covered in dirt, dust, shavings, poop. The seven I had originally put in for the one trying to go broody had been abandoned, I was just hoping she would change her mind. It was a large egg that was broken, maybe more than one, and every egg was sticky and filthy.That is how it was with mine. Do you have a rooster? Could she be sitting on fertile eggs? Not the case here.
Why would a broken egg in the nest wreck the rest?
