Is My Peking getting impatient? Finding broken eggs.

[Samiam71144]

This is her first clutch, and she started with 14 eggs over 3 weeks ago. Eggs are mysteriously missing, probably predator. Yesterday she had 6 eggs with one broken open with a dead chick inside,fully developed under the membrane. Is she cracking them open? I think she’s become impatient. Is this a possibility?

It's possible, but what's more likely, is she's crushing them on accident, Pekins are so heavy.

Today I found 2 more. And I notice small dark cracks on one egg and another has a dark circle at the air sack. Are these likely dead? I will try to candle later when she gets off the nest to feed.
