Hello All,
Ok...So my hen's eggs still have not hatched.
She has been setting anywhere from 25-35 days..give or take. I floated them. 1 sank to the bottom. The other 5 were "low floaters". (I was so in hopes they would have hatched by now).
I talked with a local hatchery also. They don't think the eggs developed. (They suggested I remove the eggs and let her start over or buy some chicks)
So my question is...I would like to buy her some chicks. The hatchery informs me the chicks can be new born. Have you had experience with giving a hen new chicks, and if so...do you introduce them to her at night?
Thank you.
