I have 4 game hens that set for me - but one has chicks right now, 2 say they are done for the season, and one had "unauthorized eggs" in a nest. I split my eggs amongst my 2 bators and the hen. I switched her "unauthorized" eggs for my bought eggs and put hers in the bator. She accepted the new eggs and is continuing to set
. I candled her eggs prior to putting them in the bator and all 10 are developing. My question is - when do I stop turning them? She's free range. I was looking for another chicken and noticed she wasn't at her usual roost. That was 1 1/2 to 2 wks ago. I wasn't looking for her, so I didn't note the date. She was there in the tree a couple of days before. Can I tell my candling? What do I do? Thanks in advance for any input.
