Thank you
I did not really see anytning in the other 3 but I wasn't sure they were alive yesterday either.
I will keep looking at them
and I will keep checking on Sunshine she is still sitting. And I can hear the one. My Goodness Iwill never just let a Broody keep the eggs she is on again.

Don't give up on a good broody too quick. I had one go broody last summer, but wasn't going to be home for a while later on. I kept taking her eggs til we got back then let her set. Didn't have very good luck with that batch, due to my own dumbness, so I took her eggs away & gave her 6 fresh ones. She quit them the same day! Couldn't fault her too much, though; she was consistently broody for 3 months straight..

I am not giving up on either of them. It was my Irresponsible behavior that created this situation. I know that. The first egg hatched with Babybear Christmas eve. So she really did need to get up and tend live babies. She is so weird now though I am keeping her coop at 60 degrees and she will scoot over to the food dish and siton it so the chicks do not have to chill to eat.

Sunshine was good enough to take the abandoned eggs
I gave her 2 Big eggs when she went broody Dec 23 so if something happened I might be able to use her. so she has 5 day eggs and I am assuming when the chick hatched in her broody mind it was not time for babies and she moved the eggs for protection or something. Because she moved all 6 eggs off the chick to the other end of the nest.

I just feel like if I let them die without searching every option that just makes it all the worse from start to finish that is why I am in Panic mode now.

Just go with your gut, and don't worry. In the history of mankind, worrying has yet to solve a thing.
