June to July hatch-a-long!!!

3 eggs left due on Friday. Bummer.

Set 17 eggs due the 24/25th. One is a boredom/curiosity test :gig I have a banty male over Leghorn females and he's very overzealous so :idunno
 
So know I have a problem.. my broody is a first time a d the last time she went broody my bigger hens broke her, well this time she has a little more attitude, but I have given her infertile eggs for know and the hens are nocking her off the nest to EAT the eggs:he I going to give her some fake ones for know but how do I give her fertile eggs know? This is the second time they have eaten her unfertilized eggs.
 
I have guinea eggs due sometime this month. I have absolutely no idea what day they’re on as the guinea was wild and I didn’t keep track of when she started. When I found her she had 16 eggs. I left her with 6 and gave 10 to my broody Orpington. Anyone wanna guess what day they’re on?

You need to separate her from the flock. A broody cannot brood in the same space as the rest of the flock.
