Is it normal for broody hens to switch nests?

It would be a good idea to candle these eggs since they weren't marked from the beginning.

If you do decide to candle, use the brightest flashlight you have, cut a piece of cardboard in a circle the same size as the flashlight bulb end. Cut a small hole in the center of the round piece of cardboard. It should look like a doughnut. Tape your cardboard doughnut around the flashlight end where the light shines through. Take the eggs into a very dark room and shine the light through the large end of each egg.

It takes some practice to understand what you're looking for and what you're looking at.
