So this happened with our first mama who had been sitting on 9 eggs, 3 weeks ago. She hatched 5, and she left the rest of the eggs and we lost them.
I don't want that to happen with our newest mama who just hatched 2 out of 5 eggs. She was on her eggs this morning in the nest box this morning, and when I came home, she had moved herself and her chicks to the floor of the coop, without the eggs obviously. One of the eggs was pipped, and the others didn't show anything yet. I put them back under her, but I am wondering if it's too late? Were they cold too long???? I hate to lose these chicks!!!
help!!
