First timers. Two sat on rotten eggs for several weeks, without even trying to move them out of the nest.
I've got a better feeling on this last one though.. she's dreadfully protective. She seems to bathe at least once a day and her hutch is in a shaded area. The nest feels a little damp (not wet or anything). But still, she also made no effort to remove a decomposing egg.. so the mothering thing is still a little shaky. The remaining eggs smell fine, so![]()
It really should be any day now! Or well, within a week.
Ahhhh that would kind of explain it, first timers aren't the best at it but come the second round OMG watch out.. They get it then. Take out the bad eggs, last thing you need is for them to explode and have the entire group be ruined...
