Ok so heres my problem my broodie hen decided being broody wasnt for her. I have some eggs in the bator on day 7 she has been setting on them about 5 days now off and on then she just qui can i add these 16 eggs in the bator or are they hopeless now?

If she's not going to sit on them then I would add them. What's the worse that can happen? They don't hatch. So, you already know she's not going to do the job, so give it a try. After a few days candle them and see if they are moving around inside. It will just be a staggered hatch since you already have eggs in there.

I agree with the last post.....you have nothing to lose and they still have a good chance of hatching.

Let us know how you get on,
