ok i have a silkie that i gave 2 random eggs form other hens ( 1 waynndott / 1 amuracana) after we lost her 1st baby (after a successful hatch - possible drowning) i tried candling them and was pretty convinced they were fertile and growing chicks. on last candling about day 15 both looked very solid.... it's day 22 the one egg has a tiny peep crack
the other (green) egg has no signs of a crack... how long do i wait to see if there is any signs of life and even then, how do i go about that?
also for the first time that i've seen, mama ran out of the coop this morn, took the biggest poop ever, acted like she was starved and went out with everyone else eating and flirting with mister man
now shes back sitting on the eggs.... normal?
