Need help about questions that involve fertilized eggs for hatching

[Nenad]

I am super bummed to learn this! I just got my Barred Rocks rounded up and was hoping that a few days together might do the trick. Sigh* I might still do put this weekends eggs in the incubator and see what happens. We only have 5 roosters and the barred rocks hang out all day together anyways…going to take the risk! Might end up with a random mixed but i’m ok with that - they usually end up with beautiful coloring.

@Nenad What ended up happening in your situation? Did you keep they separated for four weeks or try incubating the eggs sooner? I’ve love to know bc I am in the exact same scenario

Still didn't incibate because I will get hens in spring and hatch in summer(I don't have incubator so my bantam will need to). We will see. Im curious too to see.
